    TOUR START: This  tour (32 miles round trip) starts and ends in Faribault at White Sands Park, off Highway 35W, east on 60 to Lyndale Avenue. North on Co. Rd. 21, 1/2 mile (44°17'59.2"N 93°17'26.3"W).

    THE TOUR

    We will be on the eastern-most end of the trail starting just east of Interstate 35 in Faribault. The trail passes through three miles of Sakatah Lake State Park and follows a signed route on city streets through Waterville.

    There will be options to stop in Waterville, Warsaw, Morristown and, of course, Faribault (I hear there is a great ice cream shop there). We will not do the Faribault town circle so this trail should be mostly paved and flat.

     We will return to Faribault for ice cream treats or lunch as you desire. With a brewery, ice cream and pizza, as well as many restaurants to choose from, there is something for everyone.

    The Sakatah Singing Hills State Trail is a paved, multiple-use trail developed on 39 miles of an abandoned railroad grade. It is generally level and wheelchair accessible. Horses are allowed on the Sakatah, however there is not a separate trail from the paved trail. Users should pick up after their horses.

    The state park offers a separate bicycling campground, picnic grounds, boat access and additional hiking trails. There are several other lakes and public parks within an easy ride of the trail.

    The trail lies in the transition zone between what was once the "Big Woods" and the vast prairies. You’ll still find remnants of these plant communities scattered throughout what is now cultivated land.
