The White River State Trail is a 19-mile state designated rail trail in Racine and Walworth Counties in Wisconsin.
The trail follows a former rail corridor between Elkhorn, Wisconsin and Dover, Wisconsin. [1] The trail begins at County Highway H in Elkhorn, Wisconsin ( 42°39′36″N88°31′19″W / 42.66000°N 88.52194°W ), and travels east to Vandenboom Road in Dover, Wisconsin ( 42°40′51″N88°07′47″W / 42.68083°N 88.12972°W ). [1] The trail is 19 miles long, with a two-mile gap in Burlington, Wisconsin. The trail is made of crushed limestone. [1] Despite its name the trail does not parallel the White River. It is actually the right of way of the old Milwaukee Road Racine & Southwestern line.
The trail is open to walkers, joggers, bicyclists in the summer, and snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing in the winter.
The trail is free to walk or run, but a trail pass must be purchased in order to bike the trail, which may be purchased at several self-registration stations along the trail. [2]
