Capital City State Trail

Wonderful Fall ride

September, 2025 by bgbw5xpyh5

9/13/25 We began at the east end of the Lower Yahara Trail and then picked up the City Trail from there. Both trails were in exceptional condition. Traffic was busy, however the weather in mid-September in the low 80's certainly brought people out. A very friendly trail by anyone's standards. Well worth the 50 minute drive to get here. This is the second September we've rode this trail.

Old Plank Road Trail (WI)

Holly Indeed

September, 2025 by the_masseuse

If your doing a there and back deal start in Sheboygan, do all the uphill stuff and then coast back lol. This trail is ok for scenery, prolly really shines in Fall, quite a bit of hills. It does run along the highway the whole time, connecting Fondy and Sheboygan. Plenty of parking along the way.. bathroom at the Greenbush one. Parts of the trail are shotty between Plymouth and Sheboygan. Trail has no tree coverage but random covered spots to sit. Bike shop in Sheboygan Falls.

Lake to Lake Bike Trail

Really nice

September, 2025 by the_masseuse

Really nice and taken care of. It’s a good ride there and back..about 13 miles. I’m sure beautiful in Fall. Love that I left right from my campsite at Long Lake.

Capital City State Trail

nice trail rude riders

August, 2025 by jerbear5878

Really nice trail but walker be careful. So many rude riders not letting you know they are coming behind you. 3 simple words “on your left”. When riding I always give walkers and other riders plenty of warning when passing, plus always slowing down.

Fox River State Trail

Love it!

August, 2025 by suzyq3

Very nice and well maintained. I really enjoy this trail.

Fox River State Trail

Great trail

August, 2025 by d.tenpas70

Part of the trail has been resurfaced and all of the trail was in great shape. A beautiful ride along the Fox river.

Oak Leaf Trail (Route of the Badger)

fantastic trail! (with caveats)

July, 2025 by hadley6609

We came to Milwaukee specifically to ride this trail. Over the course of three days I put a little over 100 miles on my bike, which did include some backtracking. I'd say we rode maybe 60% of the trail. The majority of what we rode was gorgeous and incredibly well maintained. In particular, the lakeshore section from South Shore park to Grant Park was incredible. The Whitnall Park/Root River route on the western edge of the Oak Leaf loop was also a wonderful ride. We rode from riverside park out to Glendale; if you do this portion make sure to ride up into the Arboretum, it was amazing. (And you will find restrooms there). On a less positive note , the East/west route that bisects the Oak Leaf Loop was barely a trail, more o

Wiouwash State Trail

North End

July, 2025 by jesuckow

Trail from Wittenberg to Birnamwood is grass covered crushed limestone. They do cut the grass, but not particularly bike friendly.

Wild Goose State Trail

weekday ride in 88 degree weather

July, 2025 by neumanlover

It’s a beautiful trail … well maintained! Quite a bit of shade for the most part we started In Fond du Lac off rolling meadows rd. Biked to the Horicon Marsh loop. I would recommend stopped at Katy’s Log Cabin in Oakfield for a good bloody and/or a great lunch !

Lake to Lake Bike Trail

The trail is well maintained and an easy ride. It follows the terrain. The views are beautiful. Lots of families either walking or biking.

Wild Goose State Trail

Since the tornado in May 2025 there is two miles of trees down not far from Juneau. It is impassable. I rerouted from prospect onto Hwy 26 to Swan Rd.

Fox River Trail (Route of the Badger)

I enjoyed the south half but the part through the city was not well or marked at all. Route would be vastly improved with some signage.
