Love this paved trail around our city. It can be walked or bike ridden, skateboarded, cross country skied in the winter. Only non motorized vehicles allowed with is great for some peace and quiet. Lots of signage for all the historic mining sights to see along the way. Clockwise is the least strenuous direction to travel!
