Lake Country Recreation Trail - Part 1

The 16.2 mile Lake Country Trail runs from the western edge of Waukesha to Oconomowoc in Wisconsin’s Lake Country area. Most of the trail was built on a former Milwaukee-Watertown Interurban Railway right-of-way, now shared with Wisconsin Electric Power Company overhead electric lines. About the Route The view from the rail trail is primarily farmland and rolling hills, although adjacent roadways are rarely out of sight. Occasionally, you can catch glimpses of Pewaukee Lake and Upper Nemahbin Lake from the tops of some of the taller hills. The popular Naga-Waukee Park and Naga-Waukee War Memorial Golf Course are located along the Lake Country trail just to the east of Delafield. Visit the park to enjoy swimming, boating, and fishing in Nagawicka or Pewaukee lakes. A small portion of the trail is on road, between Roosevelt Field and West 2nd Street, where the Lake County trail continues to connect to the Jefferson County Interurban Trail.
