I expected a lot more. The trails were not marked on how to connect to the other segments. The trail path was a rough ride in multiple areas. A couple of the trails were people’s residence. The trail was not cleaned and had a lot of trash.
Takes you through a nice lake with a great boardwalk. The section that passes by the water treatment facility was a bit smelly, but mostly a good trail.
Three of us rode this trail in 4 out and back rides. There are several waypoints along the way where I met my companions over several rides. Very smooth and easy riding since it's a rail trail and is well maintained by Pinckney Recreation area.
I used to live right off of 14 Mile Road, West West Maple in Walled Lake back in the late 90's and used to walk the railroad when it was still a working railroad. My wife's niece and I road its Memorial Day weekend (May 2026) and it was a great rail-trail. Definity worth your time, that bridge is tough to get over.
This trail is a comfortable ride and pays off when you get to the old railway bridge.
Thank you to whoever removed all the downed trees on the Macomb Orchard Trail west of Armada! Now if we could get the county to trim all the overhanging branches and vegetation from the trail.
As I said a year ago, this trail needs maintenance. Trees and bushes need to be trimmed. Sinking pavement needs fixing. Trail is getting rough in spots - assume from under trail tree roots. I trimmed a bunch of overhanging branches (and got "Thank You" from about 6 people), but no way can I trim all the branches from the whole trail.
I rode this trail on July 11, 2026. Note: Beginning of trail is closed. Trail needs maintenance, looks like it has been neglected. Over hang needs trimmed, some areas bumpy. All in all a good ride. Signage would help a lot.
Definitely worth doing. There are frequent road crossings and it is very straight. More trail diversity would be better. Cute towns along the way.
I'd only use it to jump onto Genesee Valley Trail myself, otherwise I'd recommend skipping it.
There's almost no shade to be found on this trail, so break out a long sleeved shirt or sunscreen.
You'll be surrounded by crop fields the entire time on this trail, so if you want to sightsee, look elsewhere.
Otherwise, this is a pretty good trail.
