A leisurely float in the South branch of the Root River is a great way to escape the heat during the sweltering days of summer. We offer two trips of varying lengths that will keep you cool and wet.
The Root River State Trail, a paved, 42-mile state trail, begins in Fountain and runs through the quaint and picturesque rural communities of Lanesboro, Whalan, Peterson, Rushford and Houston. Constructed on an abandoned railroad, the trail is generally level and wheelchair accessible.
