I was in the neighborhood yesterday evening, so I went looking for the Marsh View Path. As it turned out, it wasn't hard to find, and it was *beautiful!* I've gone past the area many times on Highway 30, but I never thought there was anything quite so nice down below the highway embankment.
I didn't see the sandhill cranes I was hoping for, but I did see lots of red-winged blackbirds, and I heard a chorus of frogs in the ponds. That was enough for one trip, and I'll be back. Thanks to everyone who posted directions to the path. john earp wrote: > Hello, The directions are as mentioned, just travel past the mail Post > Office off Milwaukee St. towards U.S 30, to travel to Woodman's East via > bike path start at the Monona Terrance heading East through Marquette > -Willy neighborhood; aka Isthmus Bike Path ; aka ; Capital Trail Bike Path > through Atwood community behind Kipp through Olbrick Gardens to Walter St. > turn left proceed to Dawes St. go right follow bike path signs to park > behind Woodman's East continue through park on bike path to rear gate of > Woodmans' lot, pass/through the stores' parking lot , cross Milwaukee St. > at the Post Office, Really this is a gem of a ride , along the way there's > much to see and do, Jenifer St. Market the gardens the creek, south end of > lake Monona, then the marsh, I do not know any other ride in the city that > can compare since this route links all the "old Madison" Neighborhoods > together via bike paths, some what like when I lived in Asia and traveled > exclusively by bike, military > transport or local transit.
