Mississippi River Regional Trail (Dakota County)

Trail is completed!!!!

November, 2024 by christopherolley

Wonderful sunny fall day. Joined the north section of the trail at 494 bridge and headed south. A number of new/repaired path areas made the ride smooth going. Great sights with leaves fallen.

Thank you so much for the clean and safe bathrooms in the Pine Bend Bluff parking lot.

I was surprised to discover at the end of the trail was brand new pavement that connected the north and south sections together. The new paved trail was wide and included a tunnel. The trail brings you into the Bison area of the park.

Thank you Dakota County leadership.

My ride ended up with delicious lunch downtown Hastings.

Rice Creek North Regional Trail

5 minutes into ride got lost ! No signage. City streets are confusing route. Waste of time today.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

A great fall ride

October, 2024 by rmtrsws6g4

Rode this from Wayzata to Waconia and back. Well maintained, great views of a variety of environments (prairie, suburban, marsh, lake). I would recommend taking a side tour of the Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail. Well worth the detour.

St. Croix River Crossing Loop Trail

nice for walking

October, 2024 by arath1253

Can be windy on the bridges, don’t lose your head gear. I prefer to walk against traffic heading into Wisconsin from 36, and decline into Stillwater from Wisconsin.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

Rode for the first time from Wayzata to St. Bonifacious and back. One small detour but it was well marked. Low traffic and lovely views of the lakes and fields. Would recommend a bite to eat at the Bistro in St. Bonifacious.

Cattail State Trail

great trail

September, 2024 by fm65zbf5bq

We started in Almena on a gorgeous Tuesday in September. We were on a two up ATV. Went to Amery and back. Then did part of the extension in Barron Co to the 40 acre ATV Playground. Nice conditions on trail and groomed alongside. Pleasant varied scenery with several bridges. Lakes, rivers, bogs, woods, farmland. Can definitely understand why it is named Cattail trail! We stopped for a lunch in Turtle Lake at the Hotel Bar & Grill. Nice place right off the trail.

Minnesota River Bluffs LRT Regional Trail

correction

September, 2024 by fayeanhorn

It’s the trail transition on Hwy 62 that had been my problem.

Minnesota River Bluffs LRT Regional Trail

some very nice sections

September, 2024 by fayeanhorn

Finally rode from Hopkins to Chaska, I’ve been on trail a few times before but keep getting off the trail. Very poor signage at the tricky trail changes. I’m speaking particularly of bridge on Hwy 212. That being said now that I’ve from figured it out thanks to TrailLink. I will definitely ride again. Yes there are short sections that you ride along a busy highway, but the majority is wooded and very scenic. The crushed rock is very hard packed so easier to ride than some crushed rock trails.

Rice Creek North Regional Trail

Great Trail

September, 2024 by mikejward80

One of my favorite trails in Twin Cities. I start in Arden Hills at 35W and County I. I ride it till where it connects with Chaminade Golf Course and the Chain of Lakes Trail. Then I take city streets along Centerville lake till it connects with county park which brings you back to COL Trail. Very beautiful mix of country and suburbs. About 26 miles total. Signage not great but if you follow TrailLinks Map it is a piece of cake!

Nokomis-Minnesota River Regional Trail

Lake Nokomis is great!

September, 2024 by 8xshdh9bmw

The lake trail connects to the entire Minneapolis biker trails, including Minnehaha Falls and the River Road. Being from the South Metro, I park in the south side of the lake. Easy access to Cedar as well as clean restroom facilities. Avenue. Plus, Nokomis has a beach/Conession stand,

Mississippi River Regional Trail (Dakota County)

beautiful trail

September, 2024 by fayeanhorn

The day was perfect for biking and this trail made it even better. Variety of landscapes; bison preserve, farmland, woodlands and river views. Majority of trail was very smooth and clean.

Mora Multi-Purpose Trail

great & bad

August, 2024 by kaelikraker

I rollerbladed the trail and parts of it were really bad, so I took neighborhood streets and parts of it were amazing and very well maintained. The views were really pretty. I would recommend it.
