Day Trips Day #4: Biking the Trails and the Roads

Southwest Wisconsin is a bikers paradise. Quiet rural roads, sleepy little towns, and some of the best scenery in the upper Midwest all combine to offer biking enthusiasts unparalleled recreational opportunities.

If you prefer bike trails, you can travel north from Lonesome Hollow one hour and bike the famous Elroy-Sparta Trail, or travel to the east for forty five minutes and bike the Pine River Recreation Trail near Richland Center.

Off-road biking enthusiasts can travel one half hour north to the Kickapoo Reserve and bike four separate sections of mountain bike trails and many miles of interconnecting multi-use trails.

Road biking enthusiasts have hundreds of miles of scenic rural roads to choose from. There is no better way to feel like a real part of the Driftless Area than to glide your bike along county highways that present a constantly changing rural panorama. The Crawford County Highway Department rates County Roads B, C, D, E, F, H, N, S, W, and X (about 120 miles in total) as having the best conditions for biking.
