Kensington Metropark Trail

why bridge closure still??

April, 2026 by detroitgirl11

I love this trail but why is the bridge still closed? It was closed most of last year and it looks like nothing has been done (bridge is on east side of island lake entrance). This is a complete closure which prohibits anyone from taking a circular route.

Huron Valley Trail

still no crossing light

Beautiful place to run and walk

Wabash Cannonball Trail

genuinely terrible for long ride

January, 2026 by elenakramer.ohio

The first 15ish miles are paved and then almost EVERYTHING after that is stone and mud and dirt and you are in the middle of nowhere. Now, I could have done more research but I was not prepared to have to cut through random properties and factories to continue the trail. We had to cross a live railroad just to stay on track. The majority of the view is just cornfield. There are also not many places to stop for food or bathrooms or anything. You cut through wauseon, which has some places, but other than that there isn’t a lot. Anyways- I’m traumatized!

Kensington Metropark Trail

Good Wokout

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is a pretty hilly trail with few stretches of flat, level terrain.

Southwest Greenway

Decent

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

IT's an okay trail, but as it's so short, it's only real use is to connect to the Detroit Riverwalk, otherwise skip it.

Lake Erie Metropark Trail

Decent

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's sunny, wide and open, a good round trip, and has a great view of Lake Erie. The northern portion by Carlson High School is pretty rough but evens out quickly.

Clinton River Trail - Oakland County

Washed Out

October, 2025 by kjhgfd

Sad to say it's been over a year, and the best section of this trail is still closed. It was a great connection to the Macomb Orchard Trail. Any info on a fix would be greatly appreciated. Would like to help out in any way possible.
Detour route has heavy traffic.
