Flyway Bike and Ped Trail – Buffalo County Now Open!


The Flyway Trail connecting people from Winona to Wisconsin is done.

Years in the making, the trail now brings people from Winona to other side of the river via the historic John A. Latsch Wagon Bridge, leading them very close to the start of the Great River State Trail.

"Folks of all abilities can take in Mississippi River views from the 12-foot-wide pedestrian path along the Highway 43 bridge near the trailhead in Winona, wind down to Latsch Island, head across our historic Wagon Bridge and boathouse community, and finally onto the new Flyway Trail Connector in Aghaming Park — it`s an incredibly picturesque bike or walk and accessible to everyone."...
