The plaza will serve as a beautiful gathering area and gateway to the Schmeeckle and Green Circle trail system. It will feature an informational kiosk, stone benches, bicycle parking, and a bicycle repair station.

What a beautiful day to be riding, or walking, the Green Circle Trail here in the Metro Stevens Point area!

For me, it wasn’t especially the colors as I biked along the Wisconsin River - it was the smell of Fall in the air...

Colors maybe peaked a week or so ago. So although gorgeous, they are on their way out. Lots of leaves falling, lots of people out enjoying the Trail!

As a GCT Board member, I thank you for your use and support of the Trail. Our annual Green Circle Ask Campaign is coming up, so please consider, and feel free to donate then, or right here on this website. Trail maintenance and all other associated Trail costs are paid for through public donations that we all make.

Enjoy the Trail!!!! Jim Canales ... See more
