We thought it was going to be warmer today but we headed into the brisk southwest wind and it was still chilly. Of course on the way back it was slightly warmer and a lot easier with the wind pushing us. This is a smooth asphalt paved trail that basically follows along Hwy 26. There's not a whole lot of shade at this time of year. This trail has small to moderate hills so it's fun to ride. Portapotty at boat landing and probably some places in Fort Atkinson.
So far I think this is the most scenic portion of the trail. The statues in Fort Atkinson are really cool and there's an ice cream place right on the trail you can stop at. I liked seeing the activity at the boat landing. Even right now lots of boats. What are they catching? This time the hobby farm had sheep, goats, and llamas outside. And of course the covered bridge is really interesting.
In the past we rode this trail from
- glacial drumlin trail to Watertown
- glacial drumlin trail to Fort Atkinson
Connecting Trails
- North End Wild Goose Trail
- Glacial Drumlin near Jefferson
- South end labeled as Rock River Trail in Milton; however according to trail link you can go through Milton and after a little bit on road, pick up Spring Brook Trail that goes to Janesville
