PHELPS, WI (WSAU-WXPR) — Vilas County has added to its long list of bike trails with the completion of the Conover-Phelps Trail.
It’s a 10-mile section of the Great Headwaters Trail that connects the two communities.
Laura Boll is the Executive Director for the Phelps Chamber of Commerce: “I think it’s really a great amenity for Phelps residents and visitors and people coming into town and tourists. Outdoor recreation and biking and walking and hiking specifically are just huge in the area. Having something like this that connected to an existing trail and goes to a neighboring town and comes right into our downtown is really a nice amenity.”
Boll says she’s already seen a lot of people hitting the trail.
If you haven’t ridden it yet, Boll encourages people to come out to the trail open house this Saturday from 10 AM to 1 PM at the Lakefront Pines Park in downtown Phelps. There will be volunteers available to answer questions about the trail as well as maps and ice cream coupons.
