The experience is only marred by the short distance and the view being dominated by sports fields.
My review was not supposed to be five was unable to add it should only be a three maybe
Started at the D Ave entrance road to Marken glen area then up to Patterson rd. has many tree roots coming through the pavement plus the transition between the bridges and the trail are terrible and dangerous,(drops in height)If you don’t know the trail go very slow as it is very curvy and hilly plus bumps. It may be a fun trail for the young, but not these 69 year-old folks. It is scenic but when you have to watch for the bumps it’s hard to enjoy. have to watch for bumps, you don’t enjoy it as much.
September, 2026. We parked in Gobles and headed West to the Lake Eleven area and back. Old trail surface from Gobles to Bloomingdale. Though old, and sometimes dirt and/or grass and not very wide, easy to ride on. Mostly shaded as it travels through woodlands/forests. Before Bloomingdale there is a nice one-mile paved section through town. West of Bloomingdale to South Haven the trail has been resurfaced with new crushed limestone. We found it to be loose and more difficult than the packed dirt on the old section. Interesting historical signs along the trail. Gobles has trail services nearby. Trail services in Bloomingdale as well. Parking at each of these locations. However the restroom along the trail in Bloomingdale was rated one of the top 10 worst restrooms ever by my husband. No vent or window, more flies than ever and most awful stench. We were ok with this trail since though not very scenic, though we enjoyed reading the interesting historical signs and the shade.
We kept the scooter the scooters under 25mph . Perfect tail for walking/ e bikes / scooters . Everything was clean and in good shape when the wife and I visited. Busy trail . Make sure u have a bell on ur motorized anything for the blind corners . Keep the speed down . Highly recommended.
It's a short but nice trail. Nothing really to see/do.
We rode from Abshire Park in Goshen to Middlebury. The scenery was beautiful. We ate in Middlebury at Hilltop Restaurant.
Trail was ok. Accessed by Beverly shores train station and headed toward Chesterton first. First section was Ricky but not bad. Beyond that there were many areas of pooling water that nearly spanned the trail in many places. Just be aware of that. From BS train station toward Mich city it was again initially rocky terrain but rideable. Beyond that it connected to the next trail. I don’t recall the name of that one. That one was paved and great. The rocky areas also have tall grass. (Think two track). All in all we enjoyed the ride but just be aware it can be a bit mushy in spots. have fairly tw grasshave.
