We are able to access this trail right from our home in Maplewood. The trail is very bumpy from Maplewood all the way to Phalen. Perhaps the city is not maintaining it at this time because they want to turn it into a bus line with the trail running along side it. That would be a tragedy for all that use the trail and the homeowners that live along the trail.
This is the only trail so far that I’ve given five stars! Great ride!!
As the name of this trail suggests, you are taken along Highway 96. This trail is literally along the highway making for a non-relaxing, very noisy trek.
Great and easy ride. Some really pretty sections (and some not), but worth the ride!
Due to the short distance and heavy foot traffic, this is better for walking than biking.
this trail is really great too ride on to see overgrown weeds and horses. there is not much for greenery unlike Canyon Valley Trail. there is a nice bar at the end and it completed my 26. 4 mile ride on my bike
I like the green around sections of the trail with Long distance riding, this trail really helps me complete a 26. 4 mile ride down here and then goodhue County pioneer trail. it is such a good thing that there was an easy TrailLink and this one was my favorite part because of the soft downhill cruise with little uphill
However, we added an extra 5 miles due to lack of signage. We really enjoyed the ride along the river and levee. We will definately be back in the fall.
We loved this trail! We love the loop as opposed as coming back the same way. HOWEVER, we did have to use the map to stay on the trail as there is inadequate signage. We plan on going back in the fall when the leaves change.
Went from Wayzata to Mound — about 16 miles round trip— on rollerblades and had a wonderful time. Very well kept! The wood bridges were rough, but you just have to take it a bit slower and be aware of pieces sticking up.
We rode from Welch to Cannon Falls, along the river, under the tree canopy. Meticulously maintained. A beauty.
