Nice smooth pathway and an easy ride between Gibraltar and Elizabeth Park. There's also a short offshoot into the Detroit International Wildlife Refuge, which I'd highly recommend checking out!
Perfectly smooth trail through some pleasant natural and residential areas. The loop at Huroc Park is a nice, shady stroll along the Huron River as well. Great ride!
I use this frequently on my daily workouts, and it's in pretty good condition, and plenty wide.
A well-maintained trail that's great for a casual stroll through Rockwood and Mercure Park. The northern section along Woodruff Road also serves as part of the connector between Lake Erie Metropark and Flat Rock/Oakwoods Metropark.
Great trail with nice river scenery, easy access to Metropark amenities and picnic spots along the way. It also connects at the south end to Huroc Park and eventually Lake Erie, and to the I-275 Metro Trail between Willow and Lower Huron Metroparks. Great ride for anyone of any age!
The sheer length of the trail is what makes it really worthwhile in my opinion. It covers South Lansing, Downtown, Hawk Island Park, Potter Park Zoo, and MSU's campus, which is a nice sampling of Greater Lansing. It's also nicely forested and quite scenic, especially in the fall. With that being said, the downtown stretch and the bit between Aurelius and Kalamazoo are both in need of repair; everything else is pretty much perfect, though!
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.
Yes there are a lot if bumps and rough patches on this trail, but its better then being stuck inside
Crossing pontiac trail going west is Extremely dangerous - you cannot see cars on the curve and they cannot see you! And they are driving 50 mph. It’s crazy that other crossings with much less traffic have lights but this one does not. Milford rd also needs a light. Otherwise it’s a great trail.
It's so short you don't spend on any time on it, so you want either walk it or use it to hop on a different trail.
This trail takes you through woods, behind a sports field and culminates in a residential area.
It's smooth and flat, with the exception of the final segment, which gets somewhat hilly.
Please note that of Dec '24 the last few yards are cut of by construction, with an unknown finish date.
I would recommend this trail to anyone looking.
