Rice Creek North Regional Trail

Horrible for Inline skating

October, 2026 by zacrens

TrailLink said it’s a great path for inline skating with smooth black top. Total lie. This was the worst path I’ve ever done. I finally turned around after 4.5 miles because it was absolutely shredding my wheels. What a joke. Mixed with the majority of the path being covered in sticks and leaves, it was atrocious. You would need a mountain bike to consider this path okay.

Bruce Vento Regional Trail

A festival of expansion-gap bumps

September, 2026 by chrisneilbelles

Come on Ramsey County! -- Repave this thing! Oh my goodness the bumps are extensive. Wrists get sore. Smooth out this baby please! It's a really nice trail otherwise.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

stop and savor at Molly’s

September, 2026 by colleenfabing

Not a bad trail. Pleasantly paved with few bumps. Parked at the trailhead near Molly’s restaurant, rode to Mayer and back to the 6 mile marsh for a cooldown before rain hit. The standout was the chef owned restaurant adjacent to the trail and their outstanding crafted menu using fresh local ingredients. A pleasant surprise that makes bike touring such a joy. The area felt safe and family friendly.

Luce Line Trail

Hello Old Friend!!

September, 2026 by giroirchristine218

I grew up in Plymouth with the Luce line behind my house. When I was little, I still remember the trains going by and in middle school we’d run down the tracks to the trestle on Gleason Lake and go fishing or jump off into the lake. I remember when they pulled the tracks up and turned it into this walking path. There were still gravel pits on the opposite side and now it’s all townhomes. This trail has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My office now sits on the trail on the other side of Parker’s lake. I live in southern Wright County, and I can access the loose line trail 9 miles to south. It’s a great trail. It’s quiet well maintained and it’s like walking through the woods.

Willard Munger State Trail (Hinckley-Duluth)

great trail

September, 2026 by lisasoppy

My husband and I just finished a great trail ride on the Munger starting at Carlton and went north to Duluth. Beautiful sites and trail is in good shape. Some bumps but not dangerous at all. We have e bikes and are 69 and 78 in age. Loved every minute of it. Wear your padded shorts for 30 miles.

Sakatah Singing Hills State Trail

Willard Munger State Trail (Hinckley-Duluth)

Very rough

September, 2026 by qapplebaum

Started in Hinckley and as others have noted, the trail is very bumpy. Went four miles and had to turn around. It’s really cool which is too bad.

Root River State Trail

Root River Trail was a great ride.

September, 2026 by diboy89

We rode Lanesboro to Fountain with a detour to Preston on the return. Trail was well maintained and scenery is incredible. The Root river is next to the trail most of the way. Caution. The last five miles to Fountain is uphill. The Preston trail needs some work. Blacktop is rough and you can tell not as maintained as the Root River. We rode out and back, Lanesboro to Rushford the next day. That asphalt is some of the best we have ridden. Appears to be new. Scenery is also awesome. Highly recommend if you are looking for a weekend away.

Red Jacket Trail

Had a great ride today. The trail is closed at the last trestle, couldn't make it to Rapidan.Took in thr park for a break, nice park.

Harmony-Preston Valley State Trail

Lovely

September, 2026 by the_masseuse

As other reviews state, this side isn’t as nice and maintained as its counter part. There’s a small section in the middle that gets narrow and some grass clumps have grown in the midst of the asphalt. BUT from Harmony a few miles out it is brand new, and the views are worth it! Hilly as hell! But also fun. Best part is camping at the Hidden Valley campground. This part of the river is ice cold!!

Goodhue Pioneer State Trail

Very nice trail

August, 2026 by kresstim

Probably one of the best trails we have been on for being so smooth. Would be nice to see this trail go to Goodhue and pine island.
