NOTICE (10/4/2018): The Steamboat Trace Trail is closed for a section between Peru and Brownville. With the forecast for more rain on Friday, the NRD does not plan to open the trail this weekend. Even if the water was to recede, the NRD could not get the trail in condition for the weekend. The bike ride will end at the Peru Trailhead. Bikers can go as far as the “genie” which is about a mile east of the Peru Trailhead, but the trail will close at that point.
NOTICE (10/2/2018): Current Missouri River flooding is impacting the trail near Brownville. The Nemaha NRD is currently monitoring conditions. The Steamboat Trace Festival will be held as planned, however riders may be routed along county roads the last two miles into Brownville. Riders can choose to ride this route or return to Peru.

The Steamboat Trace Trail is a former Burlington Northern Railroad corridor snaking up the eastern border of Nebraska from Brownville, through Peru, and terminating just south of Nebraska City. The path itself is rich in culture, heritage, history, and nature.
The Steamboat Trace Bike Ride & Festival is an annual fall event with the objective to raise awareness about the trail and raise funds to expand it and make improvements.
Special events will be held in Nebraska City, Peru, and Brownville on Saturday, October 6, providing neat opportunities to foster community involvement and pride in our state. A family bike ride on the Steamboat Trace Trail connects the communities and cultures together.
