Written Directions

Get yourself to Lacrescent, MN (Just outside of La Crosse) and take US 61 North all the way up as it hugs the Mississippi River and takes you into Red Wing, MN. For an awesome return trip, just cross the river into Wisconsin and head south along Wisconsin 35 (the Great River Road) as it hugs the river on the east side ... you're really going to enjoy this trip!!!

Scenery

Ride along the Mississippi River - most beautiful scenery I've ever seen, been to 28 states, nothing like it !!!

Drive Enjoyment

The roads are good quality and have a nice amount of turns as they follow the path of the Mississippi.

Tourism Opportunities

Not really too much to do here but there are place to get gas and food.

Beautiful scenery. Lots of interesting sections with elevation changes and long, sweeping curves. A good, all-day, trip.

Great loop, I personally enjoyed the WI side better, with its small towns and relaxed feel. Took some side roads to check out the river. Both sides (WI and MN ) are great for riding though. Good sweepers and scenery. Stopped in Onalaska and had dinner and pints at The Wharf, highly recommend this local hangout.

Love love love this ride. The towns are amazing on the WI side. Don’t forget to wave to the Trains when you see them! ❤️
