The Fred Meijer Flat River Trail connects two mountain bike trails and five city parks in Greenville. The trail follows the winding Flat River, offering scenic views and incorporating forest and wetlands. Trail users can access parks, Community Center events, shopping, historic sites, the Flat River Museum and schools. A unique feature of the trail is the tunnel under the busy M57 highway that features a mural in mosaic depicting the local history.
The Fred Meijer Flat River Trail connects to the
Fred Meijer Heartland Trail (north to Alma) at Waterworks Park. Once the Fred Meijer Flat River Valley Rail-Trail (south to Lowell), the Fred Meijer Grand River Valley Rail-Trail (Lowell to Ionia) and the Fred Meijer Clinton-Ionia-Shiawassee Rail-Trail (Ionia to Owosso) have all been developed, this trail will be a link in a 125-mile-long trail network.
I first should say, if speed cycling is your thing, this is not for you. Otherwise, this is one great trail!! From meadows, dense forest, wetlands, wooded riverside, and lakeside to strip malls, a Meijer supercenter, restaurants, fast food, and convenience ...
