Cedar Lake to Hopkins & The Depot
I love this ride! Why? Well, it’s basically flat and my reward at the end is The Depot Coffee Shop. You can start this trail in downtown Minneapolis but I like to start at Cedar Lake Road and Wirth Parkway, just past Brownie Lake.
It’s just shy of five miles to The Depot Coffee Shop. The trail is all paved and pleasant, going through neighborhoods in St. Louis Park. The Depot offers a good cuppa java, that is locally roasted in NE Minneapolis. The coffee is organic and fair trade, they also serve homemade soup and fresh sandwiches. The Depot, is a renovated train depot and was originally opened as a chemically free-environment for local teens. It’s a feel good destination. Give it a try.
