Lovely area to walk your dog, or go to see pretty overlooks, wildlife and just submerse yourself in peaceful settings. Great place for photography as well. There’s one straight trail and many trails that loop around and off that main trail. It’s well maintained and groomed.
A new section has been completed that fills the former gap between Dexter-Huron Metropark to Delhi Metropark on the Huron River.
You don't send a lot of time in a nature setting with this trail, with the first three or so mile south of Hillsdale being alongside a busy road and pretty rough pavement to boot, and with the last three odd miles being dirt, you might want to skip this trial completely. Falling Waters Trail is short distance driving away, so try that one instead.
I live close by so this is my go to trail when I don't want to compete with vehicles. Crushed stone the entire length with the western half was redone in 2024. Both trailheads on east and west ends are congested on the weekends but it's nice to see people out and enjoying the outdoors. In between is much less crowded with several places to jump on from parking area's and crossroads. It's well maintained for fallen trees, branches, gopher holes and wash outs but some areas with inclines could use some attention to bring it back to smooth surface. Average rider can complete it in 3-5 hours and maybe even return back in one day. Could use me maps along the trail indicating where you are on the trial.
This a good workout experience if you are walking instead of biking.
Very enjoyable ride from Whitmore Lake to Pinckney. Some of the nicest scenery in the area. Can’t wait to go again.
This is an okay trail with some slight elevation and good sights.
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.
Today’s ride from Pewamo to Ionia was quite nice. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of trail in the shade, riding next to the Maple and Grand Rivers. The trail (both asphalt sections and crushed/compacted stone) were in good condition and pretty much straight and flat. In Ionia we enjoyed an ice cream cone at Cooks
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!
