The Stower Seven Lakes Trail

Download Trail brochure. 

This Trail is operated under a Tri-party Agreement between Polk County, Wisconsin DNR and Friends of Stower Seven Lakes State Trail Inc. The 14-mile trail runs from Amery nearly all the way to Dresser in Polk County. Built on a former railroad corridor, the trail begins in Amery at Harriman Avenue, travels through the communities of Deronda, Wanderoos and Nye, ending about one mile from Dresser at 90th Avenue. The trail passes through maple and oak forests, wetlands, prairies and farmlands, and past many picturesque lakes. The trail crosses between the North Twin and South Twin lakes in Amery, skirts the south end of Bear Trap Lake, the north end of Kinney lake, and runs along Dwight, Horse and Lotus lakes near the western end. 

The trail is named to recognize the exceptional natural resources the trail traverses and the longtime public service and leadership demonstrated by Amery’s own Harvey and Marilyn Stower. Harvey Stower served in the Wisconsin Legislature and as Mayor of Amery for many years.  (Download PDF Map.)
