Midtown Greenway (MN)

A great space constantly changing

May, 2026 by rlgauthier_tl

This trail is really quite nice. I’ve written it now for the last 10 years and have marvel that the evolution and changes that occur along the trail. I saw the review about post riots, that’s largely BS. I rode the trail almost every single day during those days and never had a single bit of hassle. Fact, the people were very nice. Of course they had loaded the target had very nice tents and food, but as a hole they were very nice. Currently the trail is having some work done in the middle of it to bypass some bridgework, but that is no big deal.

North Cedar Lake Regional Trail/Cedar Lake Trail

A nice urban route

May, 2026 by rlgauthier_tl

The portion of the trail near Cedar Lake has been in pretty good shape, except for a few asphalt heaves, as the LRT trail is getting done. The access has gotten better and as a whole, it is a nice. Trail, like most of these trails it’s flat, does head out west, which is kind of fun.

Minnehaha Trail

Nice trail, asphalt getting a little aged

May, 2026 by rlgauthier_tl

I’ve been biking and running this trail for 40 years. It’s a nice smooth ride from Minnehaha Falls north. As a hole the trail is pretty good, it has a few narrow spots but as Citi trails go, it’s actually in pretty good shape.

Como Lake Trail

amazing

A great place to bring kids. Nice walk around the lake good bike lanes.

St. Paul Grand Round

Great Trail

April, 2026 by pjenkel_tl

there’s been a lot of improvements to this trail. I suggest you ignore any reviews pre-2025. Note that the map provided in this app is out of date. You can do the full Grand Round loop riding on dedicated bike paths 98% of the route.

Straight River Trail

My favorite in town!

March, 2026 by aimee.reimer

My favorite to go to with my dogs. There is never a lot of people and easy terrain.

Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail

Motorized

March, 2026 by splock47

This was once an amazing, peaceful, scenic trail but it’s been taken over by kids on motorized bikes. I used be use the trail daily but the traffic is so bad, it’s no longer a trail but a highway for “motorcycles”.

Minnesota River Bluffs LRT Regional Trail

Mixed Bag

November, 2025 by tmccabe77

TV Rode this trail from Hopkins to Carver and back, a total of 40.2 miles. While the trail is mostly smooth, it is a mixed bag of Surfaces ranging from brand new asphalt to gravel/dirt. Some of it is perfect, some of it is neglected, cracked and bumpy asphalt with weeds growing up through it. Based upon the name I expected the trail to be more scenic than it was with the first half of the trail running along the light rail line and through industrial and residential areas. The second half wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t very dramatic. If you do decide to ride this trail, I’d recommend using GPS on your cell phone as the signage is lacking and it’s easy to make a wrong turn onto an adjacent trail

Minnesota River Bluffs LRT Regional Trail

11/4/25

November, 2025 by plyman38

This was the first time on this trail for our group of three. We started at the Bryant Lake dog park, which was a nice little ride in itself. The weather was gorgeous, a little cool, but bright and sunny. The trail conditions were good to great. At least half of the leaves were down, which made it great for deer watching. We jumped one massive buck with a huge rack. Then a little further down the trail on the opposite side was another smaller buck. Our trip down the trail brought us to Chaska, On our return trip was when we saw the two younger deer snacking on an “after Halloween” pumpkin. I’d recommend this trail to anyone who’s looking to see a little wildlife. This ride was a perfect “almost” end of season ride

Theodore Wirth trail

September, 2025 by stevecb

Yesterday we rode this very bumpy trail. Part of the Cedar Lake trail is closed and hopefully there’s some resurfacing going on in the area. Still busy on a Sunday afternoon but in need of new paving!
