The trail is near US 8 in both Turtle Lake and Almena. In Turtle Lake, park behind the village hall. In Amery the trailhead is at SR 46 (Keller Ave.) near Baker St. W.
We went on this trail for biking. It was very difficult to maneuver due to the looser gravel. It seems it would be fine for walking or UTV/ATV but other than that, we had a hard time with our bikes. We have hybrid and mountain bikes. We ended up getting off of the path and going onto the roads because it was just too loose of gravel. There was also a point we went through a bridge and it was all water and muck so walking would be difficult in that area. Beautiful scenery on the path, but we couldn’t appreciate it because our eyes had to be glued to the path.
Ran the Cattail Trail Saturday from Almena to Amery. Tough terrain. The scenery was great and it's a spectacular trail... but not for running.
Awesome day with our new Can-Am Commander. Took it easy, break in period. Beautiful day and the color was great.
