The most scenic parts of the trail are from Twin Valley North to Fertile.
Decent tree shade with some scenic bridges and river views.
Keeps away from the Hwy more than the rest of the trail
I Biked the trail from Fertile to Twin Valley June 14th 2024. It is a very nice peaceful ride but be ready for your legs to burn. The surface was loose and sandy in a majority of spots. If the path had a harder pack surface like crushed limestone or like surface this would make for a great trail system that could extend as far north as Crookston.
…but a gorgeous trail. We were headed to the Headwaters, on the bike trail. Just after mile marker 1, we cut our losses, and biked back to the Douglas Lodge, and then made our way to the Headwaters. There are several entrances into the Park, with carting distances to the Headwaters.
We really enjoyed riding along this gem of a trail in Fargo, ND. The majority of the trail follows the Red River of the North through a series of parks and is really quite scenic. And my dad got to join the #SaveTheBestForLast club when visiting North Dakota as his 50th state. For more details, check out our YouTube video: https://youtu.be/QIS_4B_8Jg8?si=U1gaRzb3BbdFfMqC.
Was a beautiful trail to ride. Only small amounts of bumps on the asphalt, which were well marked with spray paint. It was riding through the forest and many large old white pines. There were hills but it was fun. At the north end of the trail is the Mississippi Headwaters. As well as a cafe and gift shop which was nice. We unfortunately forgot our wallets - so no ice cream :(. Also the beautiful visitor center on the south end of the trail was really informative. We were quite impressed.
There is one section not completed from Highway 108 through Maplewood State Park. It will be really nice when that is completed. Few sections where the terrain is difficult but for the most part very nice trail!
We rode the Fargo Trail last Sunday. The trail was easy to access from I 94, and there were clean bathrooms at the park at the south end of the trail.
Enjoyed the meandering ride by the river and loved the variety of bridges across the Red River joining Fargo with Moorhead, MN. The trail was paved and overall in pretty good shape.
All in all, a good day.
If you want a long walk, a nice bicycle ride or practice for hiking, this trail is a very good choice! There's lots of beautiful foliage, signs describing the local ecosystem and plenty of benches you can rest at.
This trail is in poor condition with lots of ruts and bumps on the trail. The bridges need some repair - with noticeable holes / missing pieces in the wood. Also, where the trail meets the bridges are uneven or filled with sand - in some places the sand is washed out - pretty dangerous. Also, parts of the trail are being used by golf carts and other types of vehicles. If you are on this trail, be careful and carry spare tire tubes.
A beautiful trail North of Twin Valley. Tree lined, Shady. Several scenic bridges and rivers. A hidden gem.
