The Paul Bunyan Trail runs more than 100 miles through a lake-filled area from Brainerd/Baxter, Minnesota, to Lavinia, Minnesota. It appears that they are planning to pave the entire trail; currently, 80 miles of it is paved (the unpaved section is from Walker to Bemidji; I’m not sure if this section is rideable or not). This trail connects to (and shares a short section with) the Heartland Trail. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources web site has some information and a map.
