Ozaukee Interurban Trail (Route of the Badger)

Ok..

September, 2024 by the_masseuse

Decent enough trail.. kinda rough with all the cracks. The name of the trail wasn’t lying, very urban indeed. Not much for views and quite a bit of road crossings. Seemed like a light incline the whole time. Hardly anyone waves or smiles back. In town trail is marked well.

Glacial Drumlin State Trail (Route of the Badger)

Beautiful trail ride!

September, 2024 by tedijw

Perfect biking day in September on an awesome trail. Started in Wales and biked to Sullivan and made return trip for total of 23 miles. First portion of trail was paved and remaining portion was well-maintained crushed gravel. Highly recommend this trail and will do again.

We absolutely love this trail. Many areas are shaded. Waukesha section is totally paved. It’s a gem!

Brown Deer Recreational Trail

great connector trail

August, 2024 by given.sandra

Nicely paved short trail that connects to Ozaukee trail. Brown Deer is a great place to park.

White River State Trail (Route of the Badger)

Lots of shade along the whole trail and the scenery is nice. Also, there's not a lot of people, so it's usually a really peaceful ride.

Bugline Trail (Route of the Badger)

beautiful trail

August, 2024 by given.sandra

We just finished this trail n loved it. Fully paved n easy to ride. There are a couple areas where the signage isn’t good but we were able to find the connection easily. The pin drop to Menomonee Falls sent us to a wrong location. Best that you google map it. Also, park on the street NOT where it takes you to the parking site. It’s private n they will toll you. Enjoy

We loved this trail. Finished it in two days in July. The trail is well maintained. We plan to ride this one again.

Seven Waters Bike Trail (Route of the Badger)

Burlington to end n back

August, 2024 by given.sandra

Trail has different terrains, from pebbles, limestone, paved n larger gravel. We expected to only do this route n back, but due to poor signage, we rode 14 miles extra miles as we caught a different trail. I didn’t care for the larger gravel in the last 4 miles. Also, some of the limestone was not kept up. We rode carefully in those areas. Finally, there were many instances that you cross a street which didn’t have a slight ramp. Won’t do this trail again!

Sugar River State Trail

Trail quality lacking

August, 2024 by dpaulson1221

Tried biking from Monticello to New Glarus to get some lunch. Didn’t last long due to horrible trail conditions. Ended up riding back to Exeter Road and rode country roads to get to Badger State Trail. Very disappointing. I had great memories of riding the Sugar River Trail as a kid, now I’m worried about breaking a spike or bending a rim. Stay off unless you’re up to a rough ride, have lots of patience, a bike repair kit as well as a First Aid kit!

Muskego Recreation Trail (Route of the Badger)

This used to be a good trail when it was paved with crushed limestone. The city totally wrecked the trail with the ground asphalt , it's like riding on marbles .

Seven Waters Bike Trail (Route of the Badger)

Not worth doing

August, 2024 by zap26

If you are starting at Meyers Park (the first parking area at this end of the trail), it cuts off approximately 5 miles of the trail. It is also not labeled or have signage that states "Seven Waters Bike Trail" rather the signage states Racine Bike Trail System. At some intersections the signage is very poor and I needed to pull out google maps to figure out where the trail continued. Lots of street crossings, most not busy however you are on a semi busy road for about a mile until you pick up the trail again. There is a bike lane but not the whole part of this road.

Overall I was not impressed with this trail. It would be a good trail for exercise if you live close to it but not worth driving to from anywhere else.
