Love that this trail is close to home for me. It’s a little bumpy in places but my husband and I really enjoy it.
We rode from Bailey Park west on the Linear trail to the end. While the surface was pretty good, the fact that there are several busy road crossings, no signs or maps, no water or restrooms, made this trail undesirable. What a shame that the city of Battle Creek doesn't spend a few bucks to make this trail top-notch.
What a lovely ride through the countryside! We rode in late April, so saw plenty of spring flowers and budding trees through the woods. We also enjoyed seeing some lambs and foals in the livestock pastures that we passed. The entire trail is paved, and in very good condition most of the way. We rode from Abshire Park in Goshen to Shipshewana and back, and stopped in Middlebury on the way out for lunch, and Mooey's for ice cream on the return trip. Just be aware that a lot of places are closed on Sundays, so try to ride on Saturday or a weekday. I would love to do this trail again in the fall, to see the change in scenery.
It's a good distance (round trip) and a smooth journey, but unless you're trying to jump on Romence Road Bikeway or Portage Creek Bicentennial Park, I honestly wouldn't bother.
It's way too short with nothing to see or do, so unless you're trying to jump on Lovers Lanes path or Portage Creek Bicentennial Park, I honestly wouldn't bother.
The scenery for the waterfront portion is breathtaking but be cautious when going down the pier as water can potentially knock you over into the water.
As you get to N 3rd Street, the waterfront disappears completely and turns into a bland urban setting, so unless you're have OCD about completing the full trail (like me), you might want to stay by the water entirely.
The trail gets pretty unimpressive in its final segment, with the asphalt being very rough.
I assume the pavement by the waterfront is smooth but since it's buried under a foot of sand, it's hard to tell, lol.
TL:DR, stick to the waterfront portion for max enjoyment.
This trail is a bit hilly so you might want to keep your bike in a low gear for the duration. To off set this the entire trail is perfectly smooth.
Animal farms are present throughout the trail so the smell of dung is a possibility.
Car traffic is also a regular presence you have to put up with.
Blind, tight curves also are a common feature, so keep your wits about you.
But all in all, I thought this was a good trail, and recommend it to anyone interested.
It's a quick journey through farmland and some wetlands. There isn't much too see here but I found that I enjoyed my time here and would return here again in the future.
It's a quick 3 mile trip start to finish.
It's nice and flat but it doesn't really last long and with nothing to see here I wouldn't have a strong recommendation for this trail.
This nature preserve is a very hilly and twisty trail.
The pavement is nice and smooth throughout your time here though the constant bending arounds corners will require you to keep your hands on the brakes.
This is a pretty hilly trail that stretches for nearly 5 miles but is an enjoyable trip none the less.
Power line towers dot the landscape as soon as you hit Hampton and remain throughout the journey.
The trail boasts a garden nursery near Cypress Street, so be on the lookout for whatever plants are being taken care of.
