A blacktop trail runs from downtown
Boulder Junction to gin-clear Trout Lake
and then south and east to Crystal
Lake Campground in Sayner. Because
of the level terrain, this 11-mile, fully paved
trail is great for touring bikes
as well as groups riding with younger
children. There are also lots of places
to stop along the way to view the
many lakes and some of the largest
white pines in the Northwoods. The
trail connects to the Plum Lake Trail
and continues to the St. Germain Bike
& Hike Trail. Together, all three trails
form the 23-mile paved Heart of Vilas
County Hike & Bike Trail. There is a
picnic area about halfway to Trout Lake.
