Loop Trail
The Loop Trail is a 4.7-mile bicycle and pedestrian trail that is part of the St. Croix Crossing project. With the completion of the St. Croix Crossing Bridge on August 2, 2017, vehicle traffic has been re-routed from the existing Stillwater Lift Bridge, which is undergoing a transformation to a bicycle and pedestrian facility. The Loop Trail will cross the St. Croix River at the Stillwater Lift Bridge and on the new St. Croix Crossing Bridge. Trails in Minnesota and Wisconsin will complete the loop and will connect to regional and local trail systems.
