We rode the trail from Eden to a couple of miles past Campbellsport on a beautiful late September day and thought it was one of the best we've ridden. The trail was very well maintained, and the surface was solid despite recent rain. Although it's described as level, we did notice some definite up- and downhill sections with our heavy old tandem. Another note: contrary to the TrailLink map, there is a very nice restroom in the Eden Community Park, which is helpful if you need to change back into street clothes after your ride.
Really nice and taken care of. It’s a good ride there and back..about 13 miles. I’m sure beautiful in Fall. Love that I left right from my campsite at Long Lake.
Our annual women’s biking trip did this ride on our 3rd day, a total of 36 miles round trip. Woodstock needs to have a marked bike route from the end of Ridgefield Trace into downtown Woodstock as there is a lot of traffic where the trail ends. Some spots on the trail have a lot of bumpy cracks, but overall was OK for what we needed to get from Crystal Lake to Woodstock. Downtown Woodstock is very cute with lots of shops & restaurants with a cute park/square & where Groundhog Day was filmed.
This is the portion that is most scenic. Part of the trail from Burlington to Rochester was closed
We came to Milwaukee specifically to ride this trail. Over the course of three days I put a little over 100 miles on my bike, which did include some backtracking. I'd say we rode maybe 60% of the trail. The majority of what we rode was gorgeous and incredibly well maintained. In particular, the lakeshore section from South Shore park to Grant Park was incredible. The Whitnall Park/Root River route on the western edge of the Oak Leaf loop was also a wonderful ride. We rode from riverside park out to Glendale; if you do this portion make sure to ride up into the Arboretum, it was amazing. (And you will find restrooms there). On a less positive note , the East/west route that bisects the Oak Leaf Loop was barely a trail, more o
It’s a beautiful trail … well maintained! Quite a bit of shade for the most part we started In Fond du Lac off rolling meadows rd. Biked to the Horicon Marsh loop. I would recommend stopped at Katy’s Log Cabin in Oakfield for a good bloody and/or a great lunch !
The trail is well maintained and an easy ride. It follows the terrain. The views are beautiful. Lots of families either walking or biking.
I did this trail on bike 2 years ago and I hated it, signage is terrible, at one point after Golf road, you literally come to an end and have to carry your bike over train tracks and active train tracks. No signs of any sort. You go through a campground that confuses you even more. I won’t do it again. To ridiculous.
Since the tornado in May 2025 there is two miles of trees down not far from Juneau. It is impassable. I rerouted from prospect onto Hwy 26 to Swan Rd.
I enjoyed the south half but the part through the city was not well or marked at all. Route would be vastly improved with some signage.
Section between poplar grove and route 76 is getting worse by the day, the chipmunks are taking over and the sharp granite railroad balast is cutting into our tires. No money in illinois budget to repair bicycle trails, the only people enjoying the trail are on those motorized fat tire bikes.
