10/10 for getting back to nature. 1/10 for road surface. The roads in Michigan are horrible, so I'm not sure why I thought the paths would be better.
We went camping in Benzonia along the River. Road our bikes and got on the trail in Beulah. We headed West towards Frankfort. The ride past Crystal Lake was beautiful. We stopped on our way back to cool off in the water. There is public access near when you cross 115.
Boy, was I disappointed! Worst rails trails I have ever been on. No upkeep whatsoever, June 7th, 2025.
Cadillac to Leroy nice, flat and pavement is very good. Very few bumps. About a mile south of Leroy it gets closer to highway in going to Reed City. Not bad but not as quiet and nature filled. Trail mostly shaded. Loved it.
It is a gem of a trail, but during tourist season, it can be busier especially on weekends. Road crossings are generally pretty chill, but closer to TC be more cautious with drivers. If you park in Suttons Bay, you can cool down with a nice walk after the ride at the Leo Creek Preserve, which has beautiful gardens in the summer.
Beautiful trail as others have written. But the person who wrote about missing signs around Glen Arbor is spot-on. Glen Arbor is a fine tourist town with plenty of places to eat, but also a lot of pedestrians and traffic you need to watch out for - which makes it even harder to know which streets to turn on. Larger and more plentiful signs would be helpful.
Too bumpy between GR and Belmont for a road bike. Not enjoyable. North of Belmont is great!
Easy, mostly flat. Stroller friendly. Lovely views of the lake, trees and all kinds of birds and animals.
Great trail. Ridden it several times but earlier this month there was a sign posted "no e-bikes". This was not a hand-made sign - a permanent one Just south of the Petoskey park. We ran into another couple who was forced to turn around and told "ride on the road". We didn't feel like having a confrontation so we just headed back to Charlevoix. I'm not sure I can recommend this area of the trail due to the signage. Otherwise, avoiding this, it is a beautiful and well maintained trail.
Rode this trail above 2 days.Although part of the trail was washed into the Little Traverse bay a detour is provided. This is one of the nicest trails I have ridden in Michigan.
The trail is paved and mostly flat. Lots of trees and birds. The trail is not busy but there are friendly bikers and walkers along the way.
