The northern portion of the Sugar River Trail starts in New Glarus, which is also called Little Switzerland for its chalet-style architecture.  From New Glarus, there is a paved trail spur which goes to the New Glarus Woods State Park which has camping facilities. As the name would suggest, the trail follows the Little Sugar River from New Glarus to Albany, and within close proximity from then on.  Most of the trip goes through open farmland with only a few wooded areas.  Near Brodhead there is a covered bridge over the Norwegian Creek. The trail is 22 miles long.
