Cuts through farmland MN from Elrosa MN to just south of New Munich MN where it stops, "bike purpose" dead, and goes the remainder to New Munich as a snowmobile trail. The crushed limestone is pretty nice, much better than bumpy asphalt on many trails. But. the trail is straight for the most part, no trees along the way, pure railroad scenery where the railroad could have cared less. Do it once, RT Elrosa to the terminus and back again is 20 miles. Wear sunscreen on a sunny day. Greenwald has a picnic table in the shade, and there's a bar up the street
Trail was what we expected, pretty flat but it was an old rail bed and still in great shape. Started in Walker. Stopped to see Paul Bunyan in Akeley. Stopped in Nevis. It was so much fun, they were having their BBQ Fest, music and water show and we didn’t even know until we got there! Stopped in Dorset had great food at 218 Tavern. Continued to Park Rapids. Finished the day by driving to Itasca State Park, well worth the drive! Enjoy the trails!
This is a nicely maintained trail from Pelican Rapids to Perham. One section is more difficult if you are not using e-bikes.
There are so many more opportunities, would be nice to know who runs this program.
We didn’t ride too far as wind was kicking our butts. Review is for the eastern part of the trail. The Perham & Macdonald lake sections. The trail is very smooth and you do go by some lakes. But no tree cover so you are really exposed to the wind. The entire trail is close to the highway sometimes only a few feet. With so many other beautiful trails in MN will not be back to this one. I will take a few bumps on the trail to have some tree cover and peaceful atmosphere.
Trail needs some tlc—new paving and not just bandaids. Some of the vistas are truly beautiful and the trail can be fun to ride. Did the entire trail south to north.
We started at the west end of this trail where it connects to the Central Lakes Trail and rode east about 6 miles. Trail has recently been repaved, so it was SMOOTH!!! Wish we had not done the last 10 miles of bumpy Central Lakes as we were tired and it was middle of the day and quite warm. There is little shade at the west end of the trail and no water available, so bring plenty. The trail was recently repaved - the dirt has not been built up on the sides, so be careful you don't run off the edge - it will be a BUMP! Wish we had the energy to go farther!
Today we drove to Alexandria, picked up the trail there and rode east to where it connects with the Lake Wobegon Trail. Again, bumpy ride.
First time on this trail. Started from Ashby resort, just east of Ashby, Minnesota and rode west for 8 miles. Like that the trail is wide so you can safely ride next to someone and talk. However, there are stretches that are rough from cracks in pavement and root heaves. Sunny Saturday afternoon and only saw 6 other people of the trail. I did ride over a snake that I didn't see in time.
I rode from Albany to West Union. I wish there were long trails like this where I live. Very well maintained and smooth. I hope to take the north leg to the covered bridge also.
