The Racine-Sturtevant Trail runs for 3.5 miles from the western side of Racine to near the eastern edge of the Village of Sturtevant. The trail occupies an abandoned rail corridor for most of its route, with only a short diversion from S. Green Bay Road to Loni Lane.
The former Milwaukee Road corridor passes through a mixed landscape of open space, industrial properties and overhead electric power lines. The trail is currently the only off-road route extending westward from Racine, and it seamlessly links at its eastern end with the North Shore Trail, another popular component of Racine County’s extensive system.
The western end of the trail features connections to the Pike River Pathway, an evolving trail system that travels north and south along a rural, natural corridor, and the Racine County Bike Trail, which continues from the end of this trail to head into the heart of the village of Sturtevant - this segment of trail begins a half-mile up Willow Road from the western trail terminus.
There are no dedicated parking lots for the Racine-Sturtevant Trail. The trail can be accessed from its two endpoints, as well as where it crosses Lathrop Avenue, S. Ohio Street, S. Green Bay Road/SR 31, 21st Street and Oakes Road.
