This trail was beautiful especially for a fall ride. Everything is paved with a couple bumps far and few in between. There is plenty of areas you can veer off and explore. You can start near Platt Road and end in downtown Saline for lunch, a drink or take Maple Rd straight to the Dairy Queen for Ice cream! Everyone you come across is considerate nice and the entire trail is very safe!
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.
The MLK trail has been redone and is a great place to start off of West Ave. if you want to extend the Falling Waters Trail. So nice now. Makes trails about 15 miles one way. Such a peaceful scenic ride.
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.
I pick up this trail by riding in the new bike lane on Tremainsville Rd. and picking up the Chessie Circle close to Start High School. The path is all paved and very smooth. Yes it does have quite a few streets to cross but they are very navigable. It travels through residential areas mostly. I usually bike to the University of Toledo and then around Ottawa Park (on a multi-use trail) until I get back to Kenwood and bike through the Old Orchard neighborhood. Then I reverse to get back home. This is my go to trail when I want to bike from home. Love it!!
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.
I'd only use it to jump onto Genesee Valley Trail myself, otherwise I'd recommend skipping it.
Parked in pickney. Turn left vs right. Stopped so much going right. Left had a few crossroads woth major traffic then it went to a park, but also gravel. Still was nice. Just prefer trails that aren’t stop and go. Decent shade coverage.
