| Bike Riding
Whether you prefer paved trails, dirt trails, highways or
quiet country roads, you have several options in the Minnesota
Northwoods.
- A new paved trail in the Chippewa National Forest meanders along
the shoreline and campgrounds. In total, the Forest offers 160
miles of trail for non-motorized use. A four-page handout featuring
eighteen different loops and bike routes for the experienced
mountain biker as well as the casual touring family are available
by calling (218) 335-8600.
- The 20-mile paved bike trail around Lake Itasca, in the Itasca State Park (sometimes spelled Itaska), near Park Rapids, the source
of the Mississippi River, is just minutes from any Minnesota
Northwoods location.
- The 34-mile Heartland Trail provides a paved wooded path
from Walker to Park Rapids. It was recently re-paved.
- The Paul Bunyan Trail is a similar path which stretches from
Hackensack to Brainerd.
