Routes: 15/25, 50/70, 100 Miles

All routes start/finish at the Mississippi Headwaters Hostel in the heart of Itasca State Park. Routes begin by following Wilderness Drive - a gorgeous, winding road through old growth pines around the perimeter of Itasca State Park.

The 15-mile route offers a shorter "in the park" route. The 25-mile route adds roads in and near Park entrances. All are scenic, safe and well supported. It is a gorgeous ride. Take your time. Bring a camera.

A longer 50-70 mile route is also being planned. This route includes low traffic roads outside the Park. Expect great scenery, limited hills and plenty of challenge. We find more than half our riders choose the longer routes.
