Swedish Immigrant Trail
From Bikeview - Infrastructure Wiki
The goal of the Swedish Immigrant Trail Project is to build and maintain a 20 mile, multi-use, hard surface trail that provides a safe route for recreation and alternative transportation, while interpreting and celebrating the Swedish immigrant history of Chisago County.
This trail will connect Wyoming to Taylors Falls via Chisago City, Lindstrom, Center City and Shafer, utilizing an abandoned railway corridor that parallels Highway 8.
The Trail will be open to bicyclists, pedestrians, and some portions may be open to horses and snowmobiles.
A major regional link, the trail will connect to the Sunrise Prairie Trail and Hardwood Creek Trail, the existing 24 mile trail system from North Branch to Hugo, and to the Gandy Dancer Trail in Wisconsin. Future planned connections include Duluth and the Twin Cities.
