The Maiden Rock Dual Sport Route is a Dual Sport lover’s dream. There are plenty of challenging gravel roads, but this route also includes some amazing paved roads. The route was designed to provide some areas for people to practice their dual sport riding skills. Be sure to check out the water crossing on Rustic Road #51. It can be tricky in the spring or after a heavy rain. Although the Maiden Rock Dual Sport route seems to take you into some pretty remote areas, towns and gas are plentiful.
NOTE: Driftless Road USA’s Dual Sport Routes include some gravel roads. Since these roads are not typically maintained as well as paved roads, it is possible for surface conditions to be highly changeable from day to day. Please exercise extra caution while riding these routes.
