Just rode this trail. The section between Rushford and Lanesboro is great. From Lanesboro to Fountain there are dangerous slick spots and weed overgrown onto the trail. The fountain trail head is full of dangerous wild parsnip weed. This trailhead has not been maintained. Also the section between Rushford and Houston is in terrible condition with slick sections of moss and mud and crumbling asphalt. Decided to take hwy 16 back to Rushford.
This section of trail is in terrible shape and in dire need of repaving. There are mud and moss covered areas that are almost impassable as well as cracks, holes and crumbling asphalt. This trail is dangerous especially for road bikes. What a shame they have let this go for so long for a state trail since the scenery is so beautiful!
This trail is NOT for biking—the surface is largely sand and full of ruts and where there is “gravel” it is more like large rocks that cannot easily be ridden on. We will not ride this trail again. It seems to be for ATV’s and not bikers, unfortunately.
Great trail! Wide and open, great views of the river. A must do trail!
We stayed in Preston overnight and the rode 6.7 miles of this trial to access the Root River trail and then east to Peterson and back for a 50 mile ride. While not as wide and well maintained as the root river trial this is still a nice shady trail with pleasant river views and Preston is a good Lodging option for the root river trail. Stayed at the Jailhouse Inn. The owners are very welcoming and the breakfast is top notch.
A great easy cruising trail. Wider than most and well maintained. Lots of shade but you can still get views of farms, hills, and the river.
The trail was in good shape from the refuge to the burned out bridge to the south. I liked the small wayside with a picnic table overlooking a small lake.
We started at the LaCrosse trailhead with a large parking area. The restrooms were closed on a warm, sunny day in late April although a sign said they were to be open at 8 am and it was 11 am. Maybe they are only open in summer? The trail was in decent shape and was being graded that day as well. I enjoyed the blooming Dutchman’s Breeches in the first few miles and the nature preserve section was wonderful! preserve were
This trail has everything for the biker. Plenty of shade, plenty of wildlife, small town rest stops, tunnels, near-by biking services. Best during the Autumn when the trees are changing colors. A total pleasure.
We’ve been enjoying this trail for 40 + years but have been noticing a decline in maintenance. Vegetation closing in on some sections and grading needed in others. Please help keep this treasure going for our future generations!
