This is a pretty hilly trail with few stretches of flat, level terrain.
This a good workout experience if you are walking instead of biking.
First 2 miles from the north to the south are very bad! Water puddles and torn up asphalt. My wife had an accident when she was forced into the thicket. Do not recommend riding bike here. Never going back.!!
Biked the 8.4 mile loop today with great weather. Not too many others on the path with a mixture of walkers, bikers, and in-line skaters (bless their hearts). Today is Friday, September 12th. As such, while the beaches were open, no food facilities, rental facilities or other manned attractions were open. Having said that, the trail was magnificently maintained and I enjoyed the 1+ hour experience
Started at Bandamere Park through Ann Arbor to Ypsilanti. The signage through Ann Arbor was terrible especially at major cross roads. More signage and larger than 4x8” (sometimes so faded you couldn’t read them) placards at intersections would make using the trail more enjoyable.
I went for an amazing bike ride on the Mike Levine Lakelands Trail on August 8th, 2025, starting early in the morning. I parked at the Village Trailhead since the far east end was under construction for a new roundabout. Once I was set up and ready to go, I headed west and rode almost all the way to Pinckney.
The trail is absolutely beautiful — smooth, peaceful, and full of variety. One of the best parts is how it weaves between so many lakes, giving you gorgeous views on either side as you ride. The scenery was incredible that morning, with blue skies and scattered clouds creating a perfect backdrop for the ride.
I can’t wait to come back and explore further west on my next trip. Whether you’re a casual rider or looking to put in some miles, this trail offers a perfect mix of nature, calm, and beauty. Highly recommended!
Just an FYI that there is no parking at 84th Street and Patterson. The parking icon on the map is erroneous.
Beautiful trail! Great for cycling, walking, and running! If cycling, you can connect with the Airline Trail >> Huron Trail going west or the Clinton River Trail >> Macomb Orchard Trail going east. A lot of water, marshes, small streams, wildlife, etc! I've seen egrets nesting, bitterns, herons, bald eagles, eastern wood pewees, and a variety of other birds, as well as turtles and frogs. The deer are abundant and friendly.
Nice, flat trail. Some parts are under construction/repair. But most is still rideable.
The mostly shady (some sun peeks through) main path is absolutely wonderful and crack free (offshoots are a different matter), with a excellent round trip and ultimately connects to the MI air line trail, I would strongly recommend this one to anyone looking.
The two miles by McHattie Park are pretty rough, you might want to skip that section.
The trail would have been a lot more enjoyable if developers hadn't put right next to M-5, but it does have nice scenery, some gentle hills, and offers a connection to the I-275 Metro Trail if you want something longer.
