The Friends of the Chippewa River State Trail, in partnership with the Wisconsin Dept. of Natural Resources, assist in the improvement, promotion, maintenance and enjoyment of the Chippewa River State Trail. This 30-mile trail extends from Phoenix Park in downtown Eau Claire, at the confluence of the Eau Claire and Chippewa rivers and travels south along the Chippewa River through a wide variety of habitat including river bottoms, prairies, sandstone bluffs and wetlands. The trail joins the Red Cedar State Trail in the Dunnville Wildlife Area near the confluence of the Red Cedar and Chippewa Rivers and ends at the town of Durand.
