We started in downtown Menomonee Falls. We parked in Mill Pond Park on Roosevelt, then rode our bike over to Water Street where the trail begins. That probably wasn’t the best place to start because we had to cross the two scary intersections; Highway 175 with a crossing light and Main street on a long diagonal with no crossing light.
This is a very nice trail with wooded areas that pass through residential areas and some business areas. The northern end has some fields. On the southern end you have to stop to cross at a lot of roads all the way to and through Sussex. Luckily the car drivers are very courteous and stop to let you cross. It was nice to see kids of all ages on the trail. It’s pretty flat until you get past the Fireman’s Park soccer fields in Merton. Then you have some pretty steep hills.
We started from Fritse park (Loop the Little Lake Trail) near Menasha and took the paved Fox Crossing Connector over to the Friendship Trail. A crushed limestone, country trail of mostly farm fields that runs along highway 10. It looks like how trails used to be before biking became more popular. Many parts are basically mowed grass with 2 ruts. There is loose stone and washed out areas. Don’t take this trail if you have poor balance or skinny tires. You can hear the highway 10 traffic noise but it’s not objectionable as it keeps you off the busy road. It has some nice hills. This trail is useful if you want to ride from Neenah and connect up with the Wiouwash Trail. The trail ends at a paved country road
Made up of 2 nice country trails with mostly decent crushed limestone surface separated into 2 parts by highway 23 which is an unsafe, busy, fast highway with a pretty wide gravel shoulder. There are no toilet facilities. Some biting flies if you stop but we didn’t get any ticks.
We first attempted to ride the Ripon to Berlin segment. In Ripon you can park slightly past the start of the trail off Locust where there is a nice parking area and pavilion. We only got about 6 miles or so before we had to stop for a very large downed tree. We could have stopped at Vines and Rushes Winery but it was a little early for us.
At the Berlin side of the trail there was a sign in a grassy area for parking across the street from where the grassy trail begins at Berlin Feed. Didn't look like that end of the trail got much use. It wasn’t worth getting tandem bike out of van to ride just a few miles so didn’t ride that part.
Then we rode our bike from Rosendale to Fond du Lac. We parked along the side of Zamzow (neighborhood) Park on Willow Creek Rd just off North St. We rode the short segment to Hwy 26 and then turned around and rode to Fond du Lac where trail ends on VVV with trail head parking.
I rode from Shiocton to New London the trail was mowed definitely an improvement since my ride last month
Beautiful shaded part of the trail in Fond du lac county. Four tree areas blocking path southwest of Oakfield.
Trail is completely overgrown about a half mile from the western end. We ended up skipping this trail entirely.
Fully paved trail, lots of areas to stop and are partially shaded!
This trail is NOT for biking—the surface is largely sand and full of ruts and where there is “gravel” it is more like large rocks that cannot easily be ridden on. We will not ride this trail again. It seems to be for ATV’s and not bikers, unfortunately.
Poorly marked. Several sections are in need of repair. Several unexpected "end of trail" dead ends. Very disappointed. Wish a safe route was created to hook up with the White River State Trail, which is only a few miles away, but to access it you need to traverse country roads posted at 55 MPH and with little to no shoulder.
This could be a really nice trail but UTVs have destroyed it. The trail surface is rutted and chewed up, and it's dangerous for pedestrian or bike traffic unless you go early morning weekdays.
This section of the trail was in very good condition It was a nice ride. There was a parking area and a repair station
