Kalamazoo River Valley Trail

Okay but Hilly

March, 2026 by clonetrooper5373

You'll be taken through urban and nature on this trail, with some road biking required.

Main Trail

scenic woodsy trails

March, 2026 by allwildhorses

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.

beautiful area to walk and enjoy nature

Gorgeous views of the river, wildlife and easy going trails, though some can be a little bit wet so bring some waterproof boots!

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!

Baw Beese Trail

Mix of urban & nature

December, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Kal-Haven Trail State Park

Great Trail in SW Michigan

October, 2025 by kokmeyerjoe

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.

Calhoun County Trailway

Nice Workout

October, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This a good workout experience if you are walking instead of biking.

Mike Levine Lakelands Trail State Park

Nice ride and great scenery

October, 2025 by terrytof

Very enjoyable ride from Whitmore Lake to Pinckney. Some of the nicest scenery in the area. Can’t wait to go again.

Portland Riverwalk

Layout a Bit Confusing

September, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is an okay trail with some slight elevation and good sights.

Kiwanis Trail

First 2 miles from the north to the south are very bad! Water puddles and torn up asphalt. My wife had an accident when she was forced into the thicket. Do not recommend riding bike here. Never going back.!!

Border-to-Border Trail

TERRIBLE signage

August, 2025 by redina.simon

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.
