About Us

The beautiful Military Ridge Trail runs through woods, agricultural lands, wetlands and prairies and represents an environmental and economic asset to the surrounding communities of Fitchburg, Verona, Riley, Klevenville, Mount Horeb, Blue Mounds, Barneveld, Ridgeway, and Dodgeville. The fairly level grade and smooth crushed limestone surface offers an excellent opportunity for all to enjoy the natural beauty of southwest Wisconsin. The Friends of the Military Ridge Trail, in existence since 1983, is a group of volunteers committed to enhancing and promoting this wonderful recreational opportunity.
We work closely with representatives from the Department of Natural Resources and assist with trail maintenance, develop and improve the kiosks, signage, and trail facilities, fund raise, and develop and provide educational and cultural opportunities.
Friends meet on the second Monday of the month and welcome new members. The group seeks members from all communities that are adjacent to the trail. Meeting location information is posted under the Events Calendar.
