Rode this nice trail from N. Muskegon, then connected onto the Hart-Montague Trail, and ended up in Hart. Both trails are smooth, slightly hilly in spots, and nice diverse in that you ride through both forest and small towns. If we lived closer, we would ride these two frequently.
I ran this trail last summer and I have thought of it every day since. It is literally the nicest most beautiful perfect trail to run. The only way it could have been better is if half the water pumps weren't out of order.
Cycled 6/11/22 Trail is deteriorating. This section is bumpy and has lots of loose gravel. Still a delightful ride with great scenery. Good lunch cafe in Reed City.
Really pretty ride. We’d do it again. Only problem was that the trail wasn’t marked well and we had to ask directions - and still ended up off the trail.
God, it was AWFUL. Just bad. Too many complaints. DEFINITELY not a place for beginners, and certainly not a place to get away from people. I hated it. There are SO MANY trails to rollerblade/skate, and this place gets a 0/10!
There are some small sections that are paved and some that are gravel. Others are grass and you feel like you are riding through someones yard.
Fall 2020 trail was smooth. 6/11/2022 trail has deteriorated significantly. Sadly lots of cracks, bumps, worn asphalt and loose gravel.Still amazing ride with beautiful scenery and pleasantly uncrowded.
This was the best bike trail we have ridden. Tree-lined, beautiful and smooth almost bump-free surface. All road or driveway crossing are very well marked with long stretches in-between.
I arrived early on May 16, 2022, to South Haven for my next day’s ride on the Kal-Haven Trail and was planning to do only the paved portion of the Van Buren Trail out of South Haven and the spur to the Van Buren State Park. But when I got to the junction just before the underpass for I-196 the trail surface going towards Hartford was dual track gravel so I thought I should go for it. Not a good decision.
The gravel soon disappeared, and the Van Buren trail in turn consisted of mowed grass, black dirt, some loose sand and numerous wet spots. I did my best to say with the trail on my hybrid bike but soon abandoned it for the network of mostly flat and paved rural roads to get to Hartford. The roads run N-S or E-W while the trail goes SE, so it does take more miles. On the way back to South Haven, I took different roads and some of these were nice gravel. A good 39-mile day.
May 2022, we started in Lowell at Trailhead (parked at Creekside Park) and rode to Belding. Trail starts with blacktop then changes to crushed asphalt. Trail is in excellent condition for hybrid bikes. Beautiful countryside. This is a must-do trail! We’ll do Belding to Greenville and back next time.
I live right next to this trail and it's always a lot of fun but be mindful of the dozens of people. It connects to many places like the Crossroads mall, which makes it easy to hang out with friends.
