Sunset Trail (completed in 1997)
The first trail segment
(Sunset Trail) was completed in 1997. It parallels
Dodge County 21 between the cities of Kasson and Mantorville.
The trail runs from the Highway 57 bridge in Mantorville,
to 5th Street, in the northwest edge of Kasson. The
Sunset Trail is 2.1 miles long and has long gradual
hills. The trail is an easy ride or walk and is really
nice at sunset.
Sunrise Trail (completed fall 1999)
The Sunrise Trail is the second part of a planned loop
system that connects Kasson, Mantorville, and the Sunset
Trail. The Sunrise Trail also starts at the Highway
57 bridge in Mantorville and runs south along Highway
57, east along County Road 15, and south along two recent
housing developments between Kasson and Mantorville.
The trail continues along the elementary school, fair
grounds, south into a residential area in Kasson,
and ends at 7th Street NE in Kasson. The trail is just
over 2.2 miles long. This trail is a bit more challenging
than the Sunset Trail and has more curves and hills.
The trail is great for cross country skiing.
