    Road cycling

    The Dakota Rail Regional Trail stretches 28.1 miles from Wayzata to Lester Prairie, Minnesota, along the former Hutchinson Spur of the Great Northern Railway. This paved trail is popular with bikers, skaters, and hikers, offering a look at lakes, wetlands, woodlands, and farmlands. Starting in Wayzata, you can park at the trailhead on Grove Lane and grab a bite or fill up water downtown. The Carver County section extends an additional 12.5 miles west of St. Bonifacius to Mayer. Maps along the trail show your location, restrooms, and nearby services, with parking available at several locations.
