Buffalo River State Trail |
 |
|
|
|
This trail in west-central Wisconsin follows
the scenic Buffalo River valley for 36.4
miles between Mondovi and Fairchild. In
Trempealeau County the trail may be accessed
in Eleva, Strum, or Osseo. The river, which
lends its name to the trail, was named by
early French explorers. They called it
Riviere de
Beeufs for the many bison that
once inhabited the area. The trail is built
on a former railroad corridor and passes by
farmlands, woods, hills and wetlands. The
trail surface is a combination of railroad
ballast and limestone screenings, and is
therefore used for walking, mountain biking,
snowmobiling, cross country skiing, horseback riding, and all
terrain vehicle use. |
