Spring Getaway in Bayfield, Wisconsin

Bayfield Bike Route The shop (open seasonally) offers maps with suggested rides around the area based on skill level. For a quick but totally worth-it ride, hop on the Brownstone Trail. The trail hugs Lake Superior and includes a narrow wood bridge you have to walk your bike over—which gives you a chance to hear the shush-shush-shush of Lake Superior's waves on the beach below. See Midwest Living's review. (715) 209-6864
