The Douglas State Trail is a 12.5 mile, multiple use state trail developed on an abandoned railroad grade. This trail crosses outstanding rural scenery, traversing some of the richest agricultural land in Minnesota. One treadway is paved for bicyclists, hikers, in-line skaters and skiers; the other is a natural surface for horseback riders and snowmobilers. The trail begins in northwestern Rochester next to the USPS sorting facility, travels through the small town of Douglas (for which the trail is named) and terminates in Pine Island. Present trail access includes three parking lots with rest facilities, first in Rochester, second in Douglas and the last in Pine Island.
