We parked by the Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church and rode bike path on Packerlamd until the end. We then double backed to do the loop and circled back to our car. Strava said 9.27 miles but we did go off path a little to check out industrial park.
We rode the trail from Eden to a couple of miles past Campbellsport on a beautiful late September day and thought it was one of the best we've ridden. The trail was very well maintained, and the surface was solid despite recent rain. Although it's described as level, we did notice some definite up- and downhill sections with our heavy old tandem. Another note: contrary to the TrailLink map, there is a very nice restroom in the Eden Community Park, which is helpful if you need to change back into street clothes after your ride.
The short version of my review is that it's a pretty great trail that probably has something for everybody, except pavement, and that's a good thing (says me).
This is basically a trail through rural Wisconsin where you'll have a chance to pass through 3 tunnels, a few towns and cross a bridge about every mile or so. The two southernmost tunnels are basically dry (in September), but the one to the north drips a whole lot of water and there is no chance you'll come out the other side dry. The tunnels are also very dark, so you will absolutely need a good light to get through them safely.
Trees and scrub grow along a lot of the trail and the more open areas reveal whole lot of Wisconsin farmland. The trail has gradual climbs and descents along its length, but nothing that would cause the average rider any difficulty.
One of the nicer things experienced along the trail was a little table of apples and baked goods place by an Amish family. It is totally run on the honor system. I enjoyed one of their apples!
I actually started this ride in Reedsburg on the 400 State Trail, which I highly recommend if you're looking for a longer ride.
The only thing I can think of to improve the trail would be a little more signage. I totally rode right by the start of the trail in Elroy, but was quick to correct the error of my ways. The signs at the tunnels could use a "little love" as well.
Other than that, this was a really nice ride.
We rode this stretch out and back on September 15, 2025. The trail is flat and in good shape except for the numerous bridges (10 or 12) which are in pretty bad shape. It’s obvious that a few repairs were recently attempted, but those amount to replacement of a few boards in each bridge. Some bridges are very long and all are super bumpy. If you have an older bike I’d suggest walking it across the longer bridges. Otherwise the scenery is nice and there’s great rest areas with flush toilets in LaValle, Wonewoc and Elroy.
Pretty and peaceful. It’s paved in Phelps but turns to gravel not longer after. Shaded mostly. I’m sure the tamaracks are really pretty in Fall. The ice cream store in Phelps is open till mid Sept, awesome place to get ice cream n baked goods after your ride.
This is just a short trip from point beach down to two rivers but it’s a fun trail to run. Many small rolling hills and curves! We have e-bikes so not much of a work out but it sure is a fun trail. By far my favorite little trail this year!
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.

The trail is mostly beautiful. Almost all crushed gravel, which we didn’t expect. In some parts the gravel is thick and loose. The only asphalt is on county roads. the concrete, as expected, was on sidewalks in town. The boardwalks were fun but be careful if you are riding on 3 wheels. If I hadn’t just rode the Heart of Vilas and the Root River State Trails, which are as close to perfect as you can get in this region, I would’ve given the Green Circle a 5 star review.
Second long trip for me and the first trip that was mostly rail trail one quarter of which was the Elroy Sparta. Beautiful trail and the safety of being away from most automobile traffic made the trip way less stressful
Rode this trail on a perfect “biking weather” day! Trail is paved and well maintained. Parts are winding but fairly flat. Many shaded portions. Went across bridges. Stopped in Manitowish Waters at Dixie’s coffee shop - great place with excellent service. This trail is hard to beat!
