This trial is pretty rough due to all that loose stone, so if you go on a bike, a fat tire one is prob best, or perhaps walk this one?
My wife and myself enjoyed this trail so much. Very smooth and well maintained trail.
Part of this trail runs along US 23, which is boring, but the trail goes closer to the water by Alabaster (search the history of the gypsum mine). We parked in Tawas, rode north to the lighthouse, came back and had lunch, then drove to Alabaster Road and rode the trail there.
The Cass city trail was a huge let down. Most of the trail consisted of walking behind 2 factories and the only scenic part of the trail was 100 ft bridge with a look out over the Cass river will not be walking this trail again
This is an out and back trail (not a loop), roughly 2.5 miles long. There are trailheads at Jones and Finn Rd. The section from Knight to Jones is prettier. Nice and easy gravel trail. We saw rabbit, an egret, lots of frogs, and turtles.
This a nice easy trail to ride. Well maintained, with parking at both ends of the trail. The trailhead at the end of Jones Rd. has Porta-Jon's. Along the way I saw Red Squirrels, a dozen Box Turtles and the occasional Crains.
We access this trail at a junction point on Knight Road. It's a lovely trail along the way you can see red squirrels, chipmunks, turtles, lots of birds and maybe a deer.
This is a great easy trail, however it doesn't lie when they tell you pedestrian traffic can get in the way. If you're comfortable once it goes to a three or four-lane highway, riding on the road is smooth and you miss the walkers. Beautiful start and end points.
