I'm planning on doing this trail as part of a longer trek. My bike has 700x35 tires. Would anyone care to share if this would be doable or should I go with more of a mountain bike tire?
I loved this easy trail from Boyne Mountain into Boyne City. We rode about 15 miles there and back. We enjoyed shopping and lunch in Boyne City, during our stay at Boyne Mountain. It’s a great family activity!
We rode our ebikes - did not see any signs but we were more in the Petosky area. We saw several ebikes. In several places it goes right by the lake. It's shady in spots and we stopped for ice cream! ;)
Loved the width of the trail. Get sun and shade throughout. We loved riding from Boyne Falls to Boyne city and back.
Beautiful spots to stop and enjoy - a truly nice ride!
11.5 miles in, there is a closure due to a washed out culvert. There’s no way to get around it.
This trail takes you from point city to Moyne Falls. As of June 2026 it’s in great condition with a gradual inclined from point city to Boyne Falls. Once you get to the Boyne Falls ski resort, some of the signage breaks down, but it’s easy enough to navigate to the main trail and Des Moines Falls. You do have to cross the highway and there’s no dedicated light to stop traffic, but it was easy to cross. Highly recommend this trail for bikes, e-bikes, a training ride while on vacation.
Very well kept trail. Nice ride with a few little hills.
Rode from St Ignace to King's Fish Market, and back in early fall. About 10 miles each way. Trail is rough, big gravel, potholes, dirt, some sand, and water running across the road in a couple of places. ATVs don't slow for bicycles. Good experience but the trail beat us up. Riding mountain bike with front shock and 44mm tires.
Everything east of south shore park is an active quarry/mine operation that i doubt is accessible to the public.
The trail I found to be a bit of a mixed bag, as you can't really see Lake Huron for large portions of the trail, as it gets obscured by sand dunes or dense woods, it's a bit hilly at times and runs alongside traffic for long sections.
You might want to skip this one unless you're local.
An excellent trail with a great round trip, wonderful scenery (takes you through nature and urban), and a nice scent of pine in the air to round things off.
