The Paul Bunyan Scenic Byway area is a great getaway location for cycling and rollerblading 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 pleasant spots along the way to stop for a rest, a cool beverage and tasty snack, or a refreshing dip in the lake.

Don't have your own bike, or didn't bring one with you? No problem! Bicycle rentals are available from:
