The Green Circle is a 27-mile scenic hiking and biking trail that loops through the Stevens Point area and connects with over 45 miles of additional trails. It winds through forests and parks, over wetlands, and along rivers, recalling the days of huge pineries, pioneer settlements, and the lore of the Wisconsin and Plover Rivers.
Current Trail Conditions
A section of the River Pines Trail north of the County HH bridge is currently closed due to flooding. Please avoid this section of trail and find an alternative route until the water recedes. Thank you!
