We e-biked a Brodhead to New Glarus round trip with a short jaunt from Crazy Horse Campground (Great Place near the trail in Brodhead). Perfect day: 80 degrees, sunny, low humidity, a few mosquitos when we stopped. We have done this route two other times and this time was still a great experience even after recent weather events. Wisconsin DNR teams were clearing, mowing and as always extremely kind. There was one tricky, soft and slightly washed area just north of Monticello.
An incredible lesson learned while on the trail today. If you ever come across something of value to someone else....like a government ID or a wallet...pick it up and turn it in to the local police/sheriff. The owner of such item will be forever grateful to your kindness.
My wife and I just biked the trail. While we have been on more scenic rail trails, this one is very good. We have not biked on a crushed limestone trail in better condition. A very nice ride.
I did this trail about a week ago, was nice having a paved trail to ride on with only 1 road to cross well kept and had a lot of scenery to look at starting in Sauk City and going to the Baraboo Bluffs quiet ride.
As of July 23, 2024 there are no signs of tunnel revival. The first six miles from the northern end are paved and well maintained. After that it turns to gravel and dirt. With a lot of grass. It appears neglected.
We rode the entirety of the trail in 2.5 miles and we’ve never seen a more clean, well-maintained, and marked walking/biking path. Top notch! Highly recommended!
I was in Sheboygan for a conference & am always on the look out for a good bike ride in new places. I found information on the Old Plank Road Trail from an online search and decided to give it a try. I began at the Sheboygan trailhead and went to Plymouth, a distance of about 14 miles. I found a good spot for lunch and cycled around Plymouth for a while, which was also a good time. I then rode back to Sheboygan, finishing my ride. I read some of the other comments, discussing the trail's proximity to busy WI Route 23. I understand the comments, but the trail's location is sufficiently distant from the highway where I didn't think it was an issue.
I had a thoroughly enjoyable ride, trail was not crowded and was in good condition overall. The closer I got to Plymouth, there appeared to be more bumps, and overgrowth along the edges, but was still good. I guess everyone appreciates nature type trails (as I do too), however I also consider the importance of trails that serve as commuting trails between towns, etc. Overall I give it a thumbs up.
Awesome trails and camping! Was able to explore the northern part of the NHAL state forest. Crystal, Sandy Beach, and Starrett Lakes we camped at. Bike camped and was able to roll up day of n get sites. Crystal is one of the biggest and nosiest. The trail is super fun with rolling hills. The towns in between are very neat, ice cream in abundance lol. Couldn’t have had a better time.
Road Mineral to calamine and back on a ebike with 1.5" tires at 45psi. Scenic but rather brutal ride. Sections are ok but then you come across sections that are really rough. The atvs go fast relative to a bike rider plus generate lots of dust and noise. I would not recommend it for biking.
In rough shape for cycling. The trail is a mishmash of gravel, crushed or deteriorating rocks/asphalt.
If it were crushed limestone that would be a great improvement. It doesn’t have to be paved over to make it better.
It’s too bad because it’s a nice quiet ride that isn’t too long if you want a quick ride after dinner etc.
Just road this trail for the first time. Short drive from Sheboygan and well worth it. Well marked so easy to follow and most of the trail is wide enough for side by side riding. Several bridges, two really high ones and very scenery. Crushed rock is very hard but we did air down the tires for excellent traction. Our speed was mostly around 15mph but we did reach 20 a few times. Nicely designed and well maintained!
