Let’s celebrate the new Brown’s Creek Bike Trail downtown Stillwater! A formal grand opening ceremony will take place for the new trail at the downtown Stillwater trailhead, located on north Main Street and Laurel just south of the old train depot.

The event, hosted by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, coincides with National Trails Day where American’s are encouraged to take the Trails Day Challenge by sharing photos while hiking and biking trails throughout the country.

Refreshments will follow the ribbon-cutting ceremony. This will be a family-friendly event including art activities at the trailhead and staffed interpretive displays along the 6-mile Brown’s Creek State Trail. The interpretive stops highlighting natural resources and history of the land distinguish this trail within the state. Additional events will continue throughout the week at Brown’s Creek Nature Preserve at Neal Ave in Stillwater. For more information, visit the MN DNR Brown’s Creek Trail website. 

Bike from downtown Stillwater all to the way to St. Paul with the connection to the Gateway State Trail.
