Kenosha County Bike Trail

Lots of shade and well maintained

April, 2026 by gypsycyn

A short but pleasant ride, with lots of shade, smaller wildlife, rest benches, even a couple pet stops with water dishes for the fur babies.

H.U.M. Trail

My honey had not.rode a bike in many years and didn't want to ride around a lot of people. So when we found this trail it became a favorite, very few people, flat, nice flowers and views. The parking is really easy at both ends.

Busse Woods Trail

inline rollerblading

March, 2026 by goldengirl1998

Beautiful trail, love that it is more than 10 miles, but would not recommend for rollerblading. Much of the asphalt was cracked, and not sealed. It did not feel safe to be rollerblading on it, and did not love the vibrations from the asphalt shooting up my legs. Seems like a wonderful trail for walking/running/ and maybe biking.

Poplar Creek Trail

You need to cross several major roads, but the ride is beautiful!

Prairie Trail (IL)

2026 ride in early March very rough

March, 2026 by w5q7jv7kc9

The trail from rusty nail north to Richmond was very rough and I lost the screws to my kick stand with all the bumps in the trail is there any plans to help smooth them out — I understand the horses share the trail but if they could help by staying to one side so us bikers have a chance on using the trail with out so many bumps dug into the paths¿

Great Western Trail (DeKalb, Kane)

This trail starts behind my home in sycamore. I’ve ridden it dozens of times. I like to stop at the winners circle at the speedway and grab lunch. Flat and well maintained.

Hank Aaron State Trail

Nice trail, but very hard to follow

October, 2025 by michael.mackaplow

I was with my daughter, trying to bike this trail from downtown Milwaukee west about 10 miles to the zoo. Where the trail existed it was fantastic, but boy was a hard to follow. There are lots of forks that are not marked “ what goes where” most of the time. We got lost twice most seriously around American Family. Added an hour to our trip. Also, Google maps tells you this way ways to get off the trail that would be fire jumping off over pass. Use the app on this app. It’s a lot better.

Ozaukee Interurban Trail

A disappointment

September, 2025 by cj-elle

A lot of articles about upgrading the trail, so we did a 33 mile loop from Port Washington to Mequon. 3 miles was upgraded. The rest was filled with cracks, and bad crossings. We won’t be back. If your going to pave trails, verses limestone you have to upgrade them or they become a safety issue, and a very unpleasant ride.

White River State Trail

white river trail

September, 2025 by jkabens

Trail is in great shape. Nice smooth surface, hard packed , very tiny stones if any. Trail west of Burlington is maybe more scenic and goes through 2 small towns. Very flat so get to pedal the whole way. Lots of shade along the way. Found a good route to get through Burlington. Look up city bike routes on city website.

Great Western Trail (DeKalb, Kane)

Long, straight run

September, 2025 by hilltoppper

Did a round trip from Dean Street to Sycamore and back. Trail surface is pretty good however there are a few washouts and gopher holes. You just have to be careful. True to a former railroad bed, it is flat except for a few bridges. No busy streets to cross. The elevation profile shows a gentle rise from each end to the middle.

Do not just ride the trail and go home. At the west end take a few minutes to ride through downtown Sycamore. It is a delightful town. Enjoy some of the classic old homes on South Somonuk Street.
