History |

Trout Run Trail provides local
users and visitors alike with
increased recreational
opportunities. The trail
has been developed to boost
tourism in the area, attract
more visitors and increase
business in area restaurants,
hotels, motels, and retail
establishments. |

Work on the trail
project is being done by
a coalition of private
citizens in the area,
and governmental and
non-governmental
agencies at the city,
county, and state
levels. Trails of
Winneshiek County (TOW),
a group of county
citizens, initiated the
trail project and has
invested thousands of
volunteer hours
developing and promoting
it. |
