Mississippi River Regional Trail (Dakota County)

Trail is completed!!!!

November, 2024 by christopherolley

Wonderful sunny fall day. Joined the north section of the trail at 494 bridge and headed south. A number of new/repaired path areas made the ride smooth going. Great sights with leaves fallen.

Thank you so much for the clean and safe bathrooms in the Pine Bend Bluff parking lot.

I was surprised to discover at the end of the trail was brand new pavement that connected the north and south sections together. The new paved trail was wide and included a tunnel. The trail brings you into the Bison area of the park.

Thank you Dakota County leadership.

My ride ended up with delicious lunch downtown Hastings.

Minnesota Valley State Trail

Ran the trail

November, 2024 by bob_hoad

Although having lived in the area for years, I've never used any part of this trail. I ran it from Belle Plaine to Memorial Park in Shakopee in November. I should note that this fall season has had little rain and has been on the warm side. Around 50 degrees when I ran it. So trail conditions can vary wildly.
There were a few spots with standing water near the Belle Plaine side, all easily avoidable. There is also a length of sand, probably pushing a mile overall, around the Jordan area. This section was tough to run due to the horses making ruts in the sand. I would guess a bike would need to be pushed through some of this. Other than the sand, this trail was great and totally runnable. The brush and grass had been cut and no trees or branches on the trail.
Something I wasn't aware of, from Chaska to Shakopee, the trail is paved.

Great small town trail

October, 2024 by earthmatters

This is a great small town bike trail! Wide enough in most places to accommodate multiple riders meeting. A bridge over or tunnel under Highway 75 would be a nice touch as that is a very busy state highway. Would like to see it connect to a nearby community someday soon.

Dakota Rail Regional Trail

A great fall ride

October, 2024 by rmtrsws6g4

Rode this from Wayzata to Waconia and back. Well maintained, great views of a variety of environments (prairie, suburban, marsh, lake). I would recommend taking a side tour of the Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail. Well worth the detour.

St. Croix River Crossing Loop Trail

nice for walking

October, 2024 by arath1253

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.

Gitchi-Gami State Trail

I found the trail conditions to be in good condition but I should say I did not do the entire trail. I would alert others to the fact that this is not a rail trail so expect a bit more small to moderate hill climbing.

Heart of the Lakes Trail

close to Hwy

September, 2024 by fayeanhorn

We didn’t ride too far as wind was kicking our butts. Review is for the eastern part of the trail. The Perham & Macdonald lake sections. The trail is very smooth and you do go by some lakes. But no tree cover so you are really exposed to the wind. The entire trail is close to the highway sometimes only a few feet. With so many other beautiful trails in MN will not be back to this one. I will take a few bumps on the trail to have some tree cover and peaceful atmosphere.

Great River Ridge State Trail

Lovely rural bike trail that end too abruptly and could use some TLC.
