All spokes lead to Sparta,
the "Bicycling Capital of America."

Sparta’s bicycle trails, quiet country roads and quaint businesses offer year-round fun and activities. Pedal the Elroy-Sparta State Trail for unbelievable scenery during the spring, summer and fall seasons. Riding through the trail’s three rock tunnels is an experience you will never forget!

In the winter, snowmobile or cross-country ski on the trails and the vast land in the Sparta area when the snow arrives.

If you prefer to stay in doors, there are plenty of places to shop and dine. There is ample lodging available to accommodate a warm, relaxing evening in front of the fire.
 

Be sure to visit Sparta's two unique museums the Deke Slayton Space & Bike Museum and the Little Falls Railroad and Doll Museum.  and take a minute to stop in Sparta's shops for handmade items and crafts from the area's large Amish community.

For trails, scenery and fun year round, visit Sparta
