Day 3 – BOONE

60.6 miles and 1,583 feet of climb takes us from Guthrie Center to Boone, on the third day of RAGBRAI LIII.

“We are excited to host another great event that will highlight what Boone and the people who live here have to offer. Participants may not be able to spend enough time here to enjoy all of Boone’s attractions, but they certainly are welcome to return and enjoy all that Boone has to offer, including Rail Explorers, Boone Scenic Valley Railroad, Ledges, and the Iowa Arboretum Treehouse Village, just to name a few.”
