Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Minneapolis do Saint Paul

Mississippi river trail from Minneapolis to St Paul

At the end of 1st St N, there is a ramp you can take to get to the Stone Arch Bridge. <br />Will need to take 4th St SE on the return trip as University is a one-way street.

Use caution on Grand as traffic will be merging onto the road.  On the return trip will have to access Grand by traveling over 35 E and turning at the light before Ramsey Hill. 

Occasionally there will be a train going on Como Ave (see star on map near Lake Como).  If you want to get around it, you can backtrack north and make a left at Como Ave and then turn south on Chatsworth which has a tunnel to get under the tracks.

Do descriptions print?

Begin your route heading south on Nicollet Ave. to the Midtown Greenway on ramp. The ramp is located next to a car wash just past W. 28th St. Once on the Greenway, head east towards the Mississippi River. At the end of the Greenway (W. River Pkwy.), proceed south on W. River Pkwy. to the Lake St. bridge. Cross the bridge, Lake St. becomes Marshall Ave. At the first stop light (Otis Ave.) turn right onto Otis Ave and follow this up to E. River Rd. This little short cut brings you over to Summit Ave. more quickly, avoids a lot of traffic and will save your legs from the long climb up Marshall Ave. Otis will hit Exeter, turn right to meet up with E. River Rd. Turn left on E. River Rd. to meet up with Cretin. Right on Cretin, proceed 1 block to Summit Ave. and turn left (east). Follow Summit Ave. to Kellog Blvd. (just past the St. Paul Cathedral). Turn right onto to Kellog Blvd. Follow Kellog Blvd. down the hill towards downtown St. Paul and prepare to turn left onto W. 7th St. The stop light at Kellog and W 7th will make it easier to make this transition. Follow W. 7th St. to Wabasha. Wabasha is a ONE WAY going the opposite direction that you want to go. You can either (1) walk your bike from W. 7th St. and Wabahsa to your destination, or (2) turn right onto St. Peter St. from W. 7th St. and take that down to 6th St. E., turn left onto 6th and proceed to Wabasha, turning left again onto Wabahsa and ending at your destination.  

On return trip can go down Cedar to 9th St  E and head east to Minnesota St to 10th where you can head west and get back onto Cedar. 

There is a bike path (Hiawatha Trail) that will take you from 11th Ave to the Greenway.  The Greenway will take you to W River Parkway, where there is a shoulder or a bike path. 

Return trip can take 4th St E to Wabasha and head north to 10th St W .  Heading east  (turn right) will take to Cedar St. 

Use caution on Grand Av as traffic is merging into the lane from 35E.  On return trip, will have to make a left turn to continue on Grand or take Ramsey up to Summit.
