From downtown in Decorah take College Drive to Quarry Street/Ice Cave
Road. There are two main parking lots for this section. The first is on the
right, directly across the entrance to Dunning's Springs. The second parking
lot is about 1 mile further down the road, at the four-way stop. The River
trailhead is directly east of the first parking lot, all other trailheads are on
the north side of Quarry Street/Ice Cave Road. The River trail is a great
warm up or just ride on the road towards the four-way stop. Be sure to pick
up a map at the bike store on College Drive (Decorah Bicycles)
