Guided tours last about an hour, they’re wheelchair accessible, and open to anyone 4 and up. We’re here almost every Wednesday, but occasionally need to skip a week. It’s always a good idea to call and double-check before you come.

What you’ll see
Take a journey from our humble beginnings in a red barn to the world’s stage as a global leader in cycling.
Step onto the factory floor to see bikes get built from start to finish with Trek’s signature precision.
Get up close with iconic bikes you won’t find anywhere else — from one-offs to race-winning rigs, some still wearing the mud from the cobbles of Roubaix.
The showstopper of the tour: watch master painters transform bicycles into rolling works of art.
Where to stay
Owned by Trek, this beautifully restored 1857 inn has just ten rooms filled with historic character and modern comfort. It’s the perfect spot to unwind after your tour — right in the heart of downtown Madison.
Book a roomIf we were on a rollercoaser, we’d ask you to keep your arms inside the ride at all times. Since we’re not, go nuts! Just pay attention, because this rolling party’s going to make multiple stops — and you don’t want to miss the fun at any of them.
Best. Lunch break. Ever.
We built 30km of private mountain bike trails in our own backyard to provide employees with a much-needed sanctuary during the workday. Overlooking it all is The Lodge, a place we gather, regroup, and share more than a few laughs. And maybe a few beers, too.
The World Cup in our backyard
Every year we host the US' largest cyclocross weekend in our very own backyard. We never intended to create a race watched by millions across the globe. It just kind of happened.
