Rolling Prairie Bike Trail - Clarksville Trailhead

Show Contact Information +
The Rolling Prairie Trail is a non-motorized hiking and biking trail. Currently 21 miles of former railroad right-of-way have been paved and transformed into the bike trail within Butler County, and extensions of that paving are planned in the future as funding permits. The Rolling Prairie Bike Trail boasts minimum elevation change along the route, and it will lead you through a variety of scenic backdrops. You will ride through woodlands like those at Heery Woods State Park, pass prairie like that at Wolter’s Prairie Preserve, cross over the Shell Rock River on beautiful wood bridges, and pass the agricultural fields that Iowa is known for as well. This diverse habitat offers the chance to also see a variety of wildlife such as birds, deer, rabbits, turtles, frogs and more. When winter hits and snow falls, this trail transforms to become a beautiful and peaceful place for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing Clarksville Trailhead at Volunteer Park (one block east of Highway 188, south edge of town) - Parking and restrooms available Trailhead at Heery Woods State Park - Parking and restrooms available - Kiosk with maps and information
