The Heartland State Trail is a multi-use recreational rail trail in north-central Minnesota, USA. It runs Шаблон:Convert between Park Rapids and Cass Lake, intersecting with the Paul Bunyan State Trail around Walker. The entire route is paved, with a parallel grass trackway along the southern half for horseback riding and mountain biking. The northern half of the trail has some parallel trackway for snowmobiles.[1] A Шаблон:Convert segment north of Walker traverses very hilly terrain to appeal to snowmobilers; other users can follow a marked alternate route on paved road shoulders.[2]

Established by an act of the Minnesota Legislature in 1974, the Heartland State Trail is one of the state's oldest rail trails. A westward extension was approved in 2006 to run Шаблон:Convert from Park Rapids to Moorhead. This section is still in the planning stages and the exact route has not been finalized.[3]
