Loop the Little Lake

love this ride

June, 2026 by 47gkpg2wy5

Love the scenery. Nice and easy

Friendship State Trail

nice enough

June, 2026 by 47gkpg2wy5

Nice enough trail to get from the Wiouwash to Neenah area but very bumpy.

Wild Goose State Trail

beautiful trail

June, 2026 by 47gkpg2wy5

Beautiful country trail. A lot of tree cover and not very many other people. Worth the ride.

Accordion

Glacial River Trail

a lot of road riding

June, 2026 by 47gkpg2wy5

We took this trail from the Wild Goose trail but had no idea we would be on so many roads. As you got closer to Watertown, you are also on the road. We personally try to avoid roads as much as possible so we didn’t like this part. We only went to Watertown from the North so I am not sure what the rest of the trail is like. The actual bike paths are great.

Tomorrow River State Trail

update on my review

June, 2026 by upland.ladles_1i

about trees down blocking the trail I sent a email to Wisconsin DNR they responded they would let the crew know

Tomorrow River State Trail

trees down

June, 2026 by upland.ladles_1i

I read reviews from April about trees down this is June I rode from Amherst to Scandinavia didn’t make it because trees are still down. Who is supposed to remove down trees on the trails?
it’s a nice trail to bad it’s not being cleaned up.

Mariners Trail

Spectacular

May, 2026 by kriekkoff_tl

I biked from Manitowoc to Two Rivers and back. The trail was well maintained and well marked. The views were spectacular. The road noise was not as bad as a previous review. There was no clear indication of where trail began and where it ended.

Devil's River State Trail

This is one of the smoothest riding trails you will find anywhere. Abundant marker posts so you always know how far to the next town. The stretch from Denmark to Maribel is mostly wooded, while the stretch south of that has more agriculture.

Wiouwash State Trail

mostly a nice trail

May, 2026 by upland.ladles_1i

from Medina to Allenville 05/19/26 there’s a section between county II and county T that’s very muddy especially by the gravel pit it’s always muddy and from Allenville to Oshkosh it’s a better trail

Devil's River State Trail

Nice Ride

May, 2026 by 96dpcqz4dg

First time on this trail and it was a nice ride. My husband and I rode the whole trail starting from the south end to Denmark and back. There were a couple parks along the way as well as a bench here and there. Trees, rolling fields and a few bridges were the highlights of the scenery but the thing I enjoyed the most was how quiet it was. Even the roads we had to cross were quiet. The trail is very well kept and very well marked (quarter mile markers too).

Friendship State Trail

disappointed

May, 2026 by upland.ladles_1i

05/10/2026 I parked in Medina road the Wiowash trail turned west on Friendship trail only road about .5 mile loose pea gravel and washed out I turned around went back to the Wiowash trail. I tried going east a couple weeks ago that is just as bad.

Tomorrow River State Trail

April 2026 extensive tree damage blocking trail

April, 2026 by teribeyer44

Due to recent storms (ice and heavy rains) the trail is blocked. Biking would is impossible. The first 3 miles of trail from Scandinavia toward Amherst Jct. had at least 20 large trees down across the trail. The locals said the trail from Scandinavia toward Manawa was in a similar condition. The trail winds through beautiful woodland. Hopefully some groups with chain saws and ATV’s can help with cleanup and clearing the trail.
