Sauk Rail Trail
The Sauk Rail Trail set the standard by
displaying the ability of rail trails to be much more than the proverbial
"beaten path." This trail was the first multi-purpose route in Iowa to
boast two State Parks as its end points and another conservation area
right in the middle. The Sauk Rail Trail is truly helping Carroll and Sac
Counties develop a strong greenbelt.
The 33-mile Sauk Rail Trail was completed in
1998. The charge was lead by county conservation boards. The trail
surface and minimal grade allows for a variety of uses. The Sauk
Rail Trail meanders through Carroll and Sac Counties exposing users to an
assortment of Midwest landscapes including rolling prairies, wetlands,
farmland, and wooded areas.
