Cycling on the Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway
The Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway area is a great getaway location for
cycling enthusiasts. Most of the 54-mile byway route has smooth, wide paved shoulders marked for non-motorized travel. With gentle hills
and scenic panoramas, the Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway meets the Paul Bunyan State Trail, a rails to trails project, at four locations. There are many lovely and entertaining spots to stop for a rest,
a cool beverage and tasty snack, or a refreshing dip in the lake.
The green stars on this map indicate Byway Interpretive kiosk sites, which offer a bench or picnic table for a well-deserved rest stop. Take a moment to read the interpretive panels at each site, as Paul Bunyan himself strings a yarn or two of the area's history with an added touch of Paul's whimsical tall tale style.
The gold "i" icons on this map indicate Information Centers where you can find guidebooks, maps, and brochures to help you discover more things to see and do during your visit to the Whitefish Chain of Lakes area.
