Sparta is known as the Bicycling Capital of America. Located in the center of 101 miles of state trails. The ElroySparta State Bike Trail is considered to be the first "rails to trails" hiking/biking trail in America! Built from an
abandoned Chicago Northwestern main line, the trail features three amazing rock tunnels and dozens of old stone
bridges. These tunnels were cut through the rolling hills of Wisconsin in the late 1800's. Wisconsin in the late
1800's. Tunnel #3, which is 3/4 of a mile long, is the longest bike trail tunnel in America! Only about a 9-mile bike
ride from Sparta, it's an experience no one should miss! (The trail has a very slight grade of less than 3% -- not
making it difficult to ride to the tunnel, but making it much easier to ride coming back from the tunnel to Sparta!)
