Wild Goose State Trail

Lovely Trail

November, 2024 by the_masseuse

It’s pretty scenic, especially with the leaf colors. Also pretty busy! There’s parking on both ends. A lot of the trail is grass, not even gravel. The spot where it’s asphalt is very minimal. It’s awesome you can stop and ride through Horicon Marsh! Lots of kitties on this trail ¿

Jefferson County Interurban Trail

stunning and peaceful

October, 2024 by wilsonae

Just kept riding. Gorgeous fall day. Started at northern trailhead. Passed a few walkers and one other biker the whole way to the end. As noted it has been extended well past 2.2 miles. Lovely scenery and immaculate trail surface with lots of peaceful farms. My new fave!

Long Prairie Trail

Disappointed

October, 2024 by deetiffanylb

Like all rails to trails, a good connector for locals but for bike touring, tedious. Boring, straight, only a few peeks of rolling farm land to catch your eye, when it wasn't on the trail - immediately in front of you. Sections of the trail are in jaw-jarring condition. Beware: with leaf litter you can not see the periodic holes, non existent bridge transitions, broken asphalt...you get idea. Sad that some entity can not repair these hazards. We def would not continue west, beyond Poplar Grove. Our bodies can't take it!

Glacial Drumlin State Trail (Route of the Badger)

Great trail, but there's a temporary closure

October, 2024 by sarahccaltvedt

We rode about 23 miles round-trip from the Waukesha trailhead on Oct. 12. The asphalt is in pretty good condition, with just a few bumps. However, when we got to the big curve around what used to be a field east of Dousman, we discovered that the field is now a massive construction site, and the trail is closed indefinitely, with no posted detour. We don't take our tandem on roads, so we turned around at that point. I assume that the trail is open west of the construction site, but don't know exactly where.

We didn't ride on the western portion of the trail that day, but it's one of our favorites, especially the part where you bike across the lake.

Thoughts Of This Trail Getting Paved, And The Lack Of People Getting Caught Using Motorized Bikes!

September, 2024 by ij3175974

Good News! This Path Is Finally Going To Get Paved Soon, Between 2025 And 2026. I Can't Wait To See How This Path Turns Out, And I'm Ready For This Trail To Be Like The Kenosha County Bike Trail. I'm Glad They Are Doing This, Because I've Caught Several People Speeding On This Trail With Dirt Bikes, And I Think It's Annoying And Dangerous. The Signs Say No Equestrian, And Motorized Vehicles On The Trail, And People Don't Listen. Till This Day, People Still Ride These Motorized Vehicles On This Trail, Including The Waukegan Savanna Trail, Which Is Connected Right By The Trail Intersection In Beach Park, Right Next To The Lyons Woods Forest Preserve. Today, I Saw This One Person Speeding With A Dirt Bike On The Waukegan Savanna Trail, And I Was About To Film Him And Report Him To The Police. If I Catch More People Doing It, I Will Start Recording, And Reporting It To The Police, Because That Should Be Illegal. Overall, I Ride This Trail Often To Visit The Waukegan Airport, To Do A 10 Mile Round Trip Ride, Just Looking Forward To Seeing This Trail Paved, Hopefully In Spring 2025. Be Safe Guys!

Hank Aaron State Trail (Route of the Badger)

Nice easy trail

September, 2024 by joenad55

Ran parts of this trail recently. Easy paved trail through wooded area. Some shade in early morning hours.

Prairie Trail (IL)

Oak Leaf Trail (Route of the Badger)

Great trail!

September, 2024 by nadia.rasberry01

Well maintained trail, no garbage or anything on the path! Was great for walking with a stroller there was one roughest patch we hit but that was it. Amazing views and a nice breeze from the water. Very active trail, pretty busy area.

Ozaukee Interurban Trail (Route of the Badger)

This has to be one of the top 2 or 3 bike routes in the greater Milwaukee area.

September, 2024 by zero2epiphany

I have ridden this from Brown Deer to just a bit past Port Washington and still need to do the whole thing. On the Soutern side where it starts its no different than say, Zipline or the Brown Deer connector. But once you start getting close to Cederburg, it starts to shine, with a dip in scenery when you transition through Grafton. Then the trail SHINES BRIGHT right into Port Washington. This and Bugline are probably my favorite rides in the greater Milwaukee area.

New Berlin Recreation Trail

Great for strollers!

September, 2024 by nadia.rasberry01

This trail is beautiful, it’s very smooth and works great for if you have a kiddo in a stroller! Lots of wildlife, we saw birds, bunny’s, squirrels, chipmunks, and 2 foxes!
