Ozaukee Interurban Trail

This 30-mile system of paved trails connects you to cities, parks, historic sites, restaurants and shops along the way. The Trail runs adjacent or very close to the Port Washington harbor, crosses the Milwaukee River at an Ozaukee Washington Land Trust easement, Highland Woods in Mequon at Cedarburg Road, USFWS property at the northern county line, and Trinity Creek Wildlife Area in Mequon near County Line Road. Birds found along the trail are a reflection of the habitat that it passes, so be prepared to add songbirds, raptors, waterfowl, shorebirds and warblers to your list. Hike, bike, cross-country ski, or in-line skate to see your favorite species.
