Geocache Description:

Lake Wobegon Trail




Welcome to The Lake Wobegon Trail! The Lake Wobegon Trail is a 62-mile long, 10-foot wide, bituminous surfaced hike-and-bike pathway. The trail, which opened on September 30, 1998, extends through the Central MN counties of Stearns and Todd from the city of St. Joseph to the city of Osakis. The trail also has an extension on the west side of Albany heading northeast to Holdingford and the Stearns/Morrison County line.

The Lake Wobegon trail runs on the MN/DOT rail corridor formerly owned by Burlington Northern Railroad Company successor to the original Great Northern Railroad founded by James J. Hill. The trail is also available for snowmobiling; however, use of metal studs on snowmobiles is prohibited on the trail to help protect the trail from damage caused by the studs on the snowmobile tracks. The trail has grown substantially since it was first opened and further additions to the trail are continuing to be planned. The trail has already seen a lot of use by bicyclists, snowmobilers, roller-skiers, roller bladers, and of course, walkers.

These caches are a tribute to the top cachers in Minnesota. Rankings are current as of 7/25/2015. All caches are small to medium sized pill bottles and are not intended to be difficult to find. However, weather and overgrowth can artificially increase the difficulty. Please replace as found or better.
