There's nothing to see except some sports fields, a pond, and crops, and with a short round trip, I might skip it if you're not local.
There's lots of shade on this one, with statues lining the entrance to the trail and the Joseph River is always in sight.
The trail itself has a lot tight twists and turns early on before straightening out and the pavement is pretty rough, with bumps and cracks throughout.
I would only recommend this one to locals, and maybe only walk it.
This trail is an excellent choice if you're local, (or willing to travel) for anyone who wants a good trail. It's a little bit hilly, a mix of sun and shade, pavement is pretty smooth and with an great round trip, the only real downside is the frequent road crossings, some of which might require you to get off your bike and walk across.
I would definitely recommend this trail to those looking.
This trail has a good surface of crushed stone and hard packed dirt. The trail followed the Maumee River and the canal. Sometimes either one or both were hard to see because of the foliage on the trees and underbrush. The cement bridge near Waterville and the lock and dam at the other end near Grand Rapids were both interesting. Informational signs were present at both places. I was thankful for the bike fix-it station near the Farnsworth Metropark since I had gotten a flat tire on the trail. It got me where the pressure needed to be beyond what I did with my hand tire pump. It was a good day for a nice ride along the tree lined path with great views.
Split into two sections, one paved and the other wooded with packed dirt, it's a decent trail but nothing special.
The first part is completely paved with not a single bump or crack that I saw, and the second is the wooded part that's a bit rougher though with a better view of the St. Joseph's River.
Widen and new asphalt!! You can park at the old greenhurst golf course. Plus, ride through the old golf course, and also ride through Rieke Park.
It's nice and smooth pavement, but it's so short (even round trip) that's it's only kinda worth it if you walk it.
A nice, quick, slightly hilly jaunt through the woods. Wouldn't recommend cycling through here, only walking.
Pretty scenery next to a lot of bodies of water and the river. There was a couple spots where it was iffy on where you were supposed to go and one that was caution taped off, but it was enjoyable. Choose how far you want to take it because I went the whole way and the only way to get back was to ride. Lol
This is an enjoyable trail that takes you through downtown jackson that will take you through different landscapes including a bit of nature, behind a local elementary school, a park and a bit of urban setting.
As of 2023, the city has started to upgrade the section closest to Falling Waters Trail.
It's a good round trip experience and I would recommend it to anyone considering it.
This trail takes you through a brief jaunt through nature and culminates in a stroll inside Michigan's first ever state prison. This is a very quick trail, so you might want to walk instead any other mode of transportation.
