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.

Ride it every July with a pack of obnoxious hooligans. Always great, through rain, heat and everything in between. Can get a little crowded on the weekends. Stop at Ed's No Name in Winona if you go!

I personally think this ride is boring. The road surface are rough and uneven and traffic on the weekends is horrible.
