Wild Goose State Trail

Lovely Trail

November, 2024 by the_masseuse

It’s pretty scenic, especially with the leaf colors. Also pretty busy! There’s parking on both ends. A lot of the trail is grass, not even gravel. The spot where it’s asphalt is very minimal. It’s awesome you can stop and ride through Horicon Marsh! Lots of kitties on this trail ¿

Badger State Trail

Serenity

October, 2024 by ggroth99

Coming from Chicago, we have only ridden this trail as a day trip and ridden from Orangeville, IL (Jane Addams Trail) to Monroe (Twining Park) and back. This stretch is on a slight incline most of the way from Orangeville to Monroe, so the ride back is a lot easier. Trail is well maintained, and mostly shaded by trees. Trail in Monroe proper was a little dicey due to no protection from the elements, a bit of a steep hill, and a lot of runoff from rain by 8th street. Crossing at 8th street is "interesting". Pit toilet in Orangeville, with a BP gas station right across the road, flush toilet in Twining Park. Went riding on 10/26, and saw a grand total of 5 other people the entire ride (2 bikers, 2 walkers, 1 jogger). Only trail I've been on where there were complete moments of silence, combined with some of the scenery, just absolutely breathtaking.

Buffalo River State Trail

ATV Trail (mostly)

October, 2024 by tmann51

As other reviewers have said, this is NOT a bike friendly state trail. I live in Mondovi about 1/3 mile from the trail head and have learned that some of the worst loose sand is in the first mile heading east. However, after having bought a "fat bike" with 4 1/2 " tires, this is very ridable. I personally avoid riding on weekends due to the ATV traffic. It would also be nice to have more public parking along the route.

Jefferson County Interurban Trail

stunning and peaceful

October, 2024 by wilsonae

Just kept riding. Gorgeous fall day. Started at northern trailhead. Passed a few walkers and one other biker the whole way to the end. As noted it has been extended well past 2.2 miles. Lovely scenery and immaculate trail surface with lots of peaceful farms. My new fave!

Glacial Drumlin State Trail (Route of the Badger)

Great trail, but there's a temporary closure

October, 2024 by sarahccaltvedt

We rode about 23 miles round-trip from the Waukesha trailhead on Oct. 12. The asphalt is in pretty good condition, with just a few bumps. However, when we got to the big curve around what used to be a field east of Dousman, we discovered that the field is now a massive construction site, and the trail is closed indefinitely, with no posted detour. We don't take our tandem on roads, so we turned around at that point. I assume that the trail is open west of the construction site, but don't know exactly where.

We didn't ride on the western portion of the trail that day, but it's one of our favorites, especially the part where you bike across the lake.

Great Sauk State Trail

I have ridden this trail a couple of times and have enjoyed the trail quality and the river and prairie scenery. The only complaint I have is that the trail ends before getting into Devils Lake State Park which could make the trail spectacular.

Pine Line Trail

Beautiful!

October, 2024 by the_masseuse

So yes, the gravel isn’t the greatest, the bigger the tire the better. It’s a bit chunky and loose..gets chunkier in Price county, seems to be kept up though? It’s so worth the extra effort come Fall. I had very little issues with my gravel bike. It’s super peaceful. No ATVs allowed, but horses are ¿. Seen quite a few grouse and there’s all new bridges throughout! It’s quite the beautiful trail and worth enduring the subpar gravel.

Love this little trail with meandering through the woods along the river. Asphalt is in good shape too.

St. Croix River Crossing Loop Trail

nice for walking

Can be windy on the bridges, don’t lose your head gear. I prefer to walk against traffic heading into Wisconsin from 36, and decline into Stillwater from Wisconsin.

Powerline Trail (WI)

New trail, is very smooth. Crossing streets is safe. Slight uphill grade west to east which makes return trip west easy!
