The day was sunny and 75 degrees, perfect biking weather. I started at the Willard Munger Motel and rode seven miles south. Perfect vistas, steep cliffs and channels blasted out of rock 100 years ago for an early rail line. The trail is a very gradual uphill going south out of Duluth, a very easy ride. And of course the whole ride back is all down hill which is great for a return trip. A wonderful two hours. P.S. I am a novice biker on a $100 bike and way out of shape and was able to do 15 miles easily and only had minor soreness the next morning.

Do you know how far that is from downtown Duluth (near Canal Park/Lake Walk)? Thanks…I meant to ask if you could rent bikes at the start of the trail.

Take I35 south out of downtown; take the grand ave exit. Its about 10 minutes from Canal Park. It’s at 7408 Grand Avenue. Take I35 south out of downtown; take the grand ave exit.
