Description:
The Huron River Greenway (a.k.a. the Border-to-Border Trail) stretches from the Barton Nature Area north of Ann Arbor south toward town, mostly following the course of the Huron River. The trail crossed the river several times on its way to the campus of Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti. Here the trail ends for a few miles but picks up again in south Ypsilanti near Interstate 94. It continues south along the north shore of Ford Lake to North Hydro Park in Rawsonville.

The multi-use trail is a popular recreational and commuter route, linking neighborhoods, colleges, parks, hospitals, businesses and other facilities. The trail offers scenic views through a wooded suburban corridor.

Poorly marked in Ypsilanti
By avivadetroit in February, 2012
Took the trail from Rawsonville (Grove St.) to downtown Ann Arbor. Great trail, especially going past all of those beautiful old houses and churches in Ypsilanti and going through Gallup Park in Ann Arbor. I would suggest that the signs in the Ypsilanti neighborhoods be larger and closer together. We had to guess a few times how to proceed. The pdf of the brochures/maps on the Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor official parks sites, when printed, are too small and low-res to read the street names. And the map on this site has gaps in it.

The Border To Border Trail is still a work in progress, but is completed between the two major population areas, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, in Washtenaw County.
