well maintained trail. scenic views of farmland, small towns, wildlife along the trail.
Signage to trailheads is poor or non-existent. Although this trail is listed as wheelchair accessible, it is not a smooth trail and gravel is fairly rough. I did not see any asphalt. The first mile or so from the western trailhead at Becks Road is shown on the on-site map as mountain biking and mostly OK for hybrid bikes but rough. The connection with the Willard Munger Trail has no signage at junction
The trail is an ok ride. Beautiful in some areas but somewhat dangerous; riding in a fair amount of busy traffic, pretty far away from views of the lakes; with no bike route paths. Glad we took the ride, but not sure we would ride it again.
Went on the Troutbrook Trail today. … Not advised. There’s a picture of an overpass bridge under photos. When we psssed that there’s a homeless encampment. The only redeeming part of this trail was there were two squad cars parked at the end of it so I felt a little safer. Not a place to bring kids!!!
We rode from east Medicine Lake Park to Fish Lake Regional Park. Except for a few miles along a noisy 4 lane road it was a pretty trail. Parts of trail appeared to have been recently resurfaced. But other parts were very rough. I missed 1 turn off because of no signage, but was able to get back on track with Trail Link map.
We rode part of it and found asphalt surface in good condition. A few places near town had some bumps but most of the surface was smooth. Trail was well marked with signs and where it crossed a road had signs to warn drivers. There were some walkers on the trail but at the time we rode it wasn’t crowded at all. I wish we had time to ride more of it. Most of the tail we were on was adjacent to streets but they were low traffic so it wasn’t noisy and was very pleasant riding conditions some spots had very nice view of the lake.
We rode the Walker Loop, a great 22 mile loop that includes the Paul Bunyan, Shingobee and Heartland Trails. Some steep hills but not a problem on our e-bikes. The trail was in good condition. The next day we rode the Paul Bunyan north from Walker to LaPorte. The trail definitely had some rough spots, but it was all worth it when we happened to find a super cute coffee shop/lunch spot about a block off the trail. There are no signs so you won’t expect to see this little gem in this tiny little town. It’s called The Door. I was told the city would not allow them to put a sign along the trail!
The Rocori Trail begins just east of Richmond as an extension of the Glacial Lakes Trail that trailheads in Willmar, Mn. Rocori takes you up to Cold Spring and a beautiful park and bridge over a roaring river up to Rockville, Mn a small town where the trail dead ends as you can see the rusty old railroad tracks going off into the woods. That's the end of the trail, baby. BUT, as small as Rockville is there is a wonderful bar and eatery called Stoney's Garage. Makes finding the end of the trail a delight.
Cuts through farmland MN from Elrosa MN to just south of New Munich MN where it stops, "bike purpose" dead, and goes the remainder to New Munich as a snowmobile trail. The crushed limestone is pretty nice, much better than bumpy asphalt on many trails. But. the trail is straight for the most part, no trees along the way, pure railroad scenery where the railroad could have cared less. Do it once, RT Elrosa to the terminus and back again is 20 miles. Wear sunscreen on a sunny day. Greenwald has a picnic table in the shade, and there's a bar up the street
Trail was what we expected, pretty flat but it was an old rail bed and still in great shape. Started in Walker. Stopped to see Paul Bunyan in Akeley. Stopped in Nevis. It was so much fun, they were having their BBQ Fest, music and water show and we didn’t even know until we got there! Stopped in Dorset had great food at 218 Tavern. Continued to Park Rapids. Finished the day by driving to Itasca State Park, well worth the drive! Enjoy the trails!
Lots of shade, beautiful landscape. Lots of turns, great views of Albert Lea Lake. Not crowded on a Sunday. A little hilly. Loved it so much. This is one of our favorites!!
