Bikepacking Routes

The Minnesota River Ramble is a five-day gravel bikepacking route that follows the Minnesota River in the southwestern part of the state. The river itself tends to ramble, starting on the state's western edge before heading south and then unexpectedly back north. The route also rambles from the top of the valley to the river below, out into the wide-open blue skies of country farmlands, and into dense forest canopies. With minimal climbing, recommended daily distances of around 65 miles, and towns dotting the way for resupply, the River Ramble would make a great first multi-day trip...

The Straddle and Paddle bikepacking route traverses the north shore of Lake Superior and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Straddle your bike through the north woods and paddle a canoe on the finest short day-trip loop the Boundary Waters has to offer. The updated 2.0 route includes new remote tracks, a visit to an abandoned railroad tunnel, and an extended singletrack option for the intrepid.
