The Mississippi River Gorge Trail (West River / James I. Rice Parkway Trail) is CLOSED for reconstruction from the landslide north to the Stone Arch Bridge. More information on the project here. Also, it is still buried by the landslide south of 4th Street. I have expanded my review on this trail to also include the northeast side of the Downtown Riverfront, and the trails north of the Plymouth Avenue Bridge. The Dinkytown Greenway has been extended under 35W (image at left). Now, to access it coming from the north on the Mississippi River Gorge Trail, turn right on 13th Street to avoid going downhill and then up again. |
