Newton Blackmour State Trail

Nice trail

June, 2025 by dpate

I rode the entire trail from Seymour to New London and back in early June 2025. The trail is in super good shape and rideable with a road bike. There was a tree down across the trail about a mile west of Shiocton but easy to maneuver around. A really nice quiet ride in the countryside with no death machines. I rate it five stars.

Green Circle Trail

Becoming a Favorite Trail

June, 2025 by tedijw

We’ve done this trail twice and really enjoy it. Was attending a conference in SP and decided to bring bikes along. Weather was perfect for riding so we took advantage and rode this trail. It was wonderful. Love the variety of ‘environments’ you bike through, especially Schmeekle Reserve. The train is well maintained. Only delay was waiting on a train for 45 minutes!!

Wiouwash State Trail

The Wiouwash Trail is a pretty cool ride

April, 2025 by martinaxe

I did the Wiouwash Trail between downtown Oshkosh and Hortonville over two days while visiting family in the Oshkosh area, and the conditions were pretty great. Prior to this past weekend, I had only ridden the southern half of this segment. If you enjoy a nice (mostly) gravel trail that is very flat, you should have a great time on this one. The trail only had one small sketchy area of about 100 yards just south of County Road II near the gravel yard. Other than that, it's a really smooth trail.

I road a Salsa Fargo on this visit with 29x2.2" tires, but have also done it on an All-City gravel bike with 700x38 tires. Both work just great, and I'm guessing you could easily get by with tires down to 32-ish mm.

There is a nice mix of fields and forested areas along with a few wetland locations. I happened to see quite a few deer, turkey Canada geese, two trumpeter swans and even a couple of Cooper's hawks hunting along the trail, one successfully.

It is probably also worth mentioning that I rode this trail on a Saturday and Sunday in good weather conditions and saw ZERO other bikers, which was more than a little surprising, but there were plenty of people walking dogs at various points along the trail.

Big thumbs up for this trail. Consider getting out to enjoy it if/when you are able.

Baird Creek Greenway

Best Trails in GB!

The Baird Creek Trails never disappoint.

Ahnapee State Park Trail

Harvey the RV

September, 2024 by carlbrunning99

We started at the Forestville Dam County Park and rode north to Sturgeon Bay. After a nice lunch we headed back to the park. Overall a 26 mile RT. The trail is in good shape with gravel and stone dust most of the way. Once near Sturgeon the trail follows roadside for 2-3 miles.

Loop the Little Lake

Beautiful trail

August, 2024 by joshberg67

Very Cute little trail to try out if you are doing the friendship trail. It definitely adds some light to the experience! Small easy ride

Wiouwash State Trail

great trail!

August, 2024 by joshberg67

One of the best trails I have risen around here so far. Great distance that takes you through all sorts of different scenery and is easy to ride!

Friendship State Trail

decent

August, 2024 by joshberg67

The trail has some nice parts , however it goes through town a lot and some parts are not clearly marked which way to go. Some parts are washed out so can be difficult to keep steady in those areas.

Devil's River State Trail

smooth crushed limestone

July, 2024 by maurgreen2020

Rode the trail south to north. Quite not much traffic. Lots of stop signs for cross roads. Flat the whole way thru farm land and small towns. Kind of boring in some ways.

Baird Creek Greenway

Great scenic bike trail

July, 2024 by jmgaffner

We really enjoyed riding on this trail. It was very scenic and well maintained.

Devil's River State Trail

Exceptional Condition

July, 2024 by rhendren623

Editing my review to indicate “destination”. Denmark has an exceptional place to eat and have a beer… Schuster’s Arcade. It’s been open 115 years… highly recommend! Now we will bike the trail back to our car.

Devil's River State Trail

Exceptional Condition

July, 2024 by rhendren623

My wife and I just biked the trail. While we have been on more scenic rail trails, this one is very good. We have not biked on a crushed limestone trail in better condition. A very nice ride.
