starts in Marshland, and
then passes by the Trempealeau
National Wildlife Refuge and Perrot State
Park on its way
south to Trempealeau. There you can watch tugboats push
barges through the locks as well as other activities on
the river. The entire
trail is quite shaded, and the
Mississippi bluffs add significantly
to the
scenery. The
Black River Bridge between Trempealeau and
Midway is
extremely long and Quite impressive.

18 bridge crossings.

From
Elroy, the Omaha
Trail runs north for
13 miles to Camp
Douglas. This trail
is paved, and has
one tunnel, which is
875
feet long. Most of
the pathway is
shaded, flat, and
straight as an
arrow. Contrary to
the placement of the
tunnel on most maps,
it
is actually 3¾ mi
from Hustler to the
tunnel. There is at
least one
bar and a bowling
alley that serve
food in Hustler.
Northwest of
Camp Douglas is Mill
Bluff State Park,
which is known for
its
towering sandstone
bluffs.
