This brief trail is a mix of a brief segment of nature that quickly gives over to an urban setting, linking with the Baw Beese trail. The trail is mostly smooth, with a few plant roots breaking through the asphalt. It's best used as a walking trail, as it ends too quickly on a bike, unless you head down the Baw Beese trail as well.
The trail is kinda bumpy throughout and switches from nature to urban almost immediately, with nothing really to see. Still, I felt I enjoyed my time on this trail, but if you're not local, I wouldn't bother.
My first time going and it was great! Safe place and beautiful scenery
Started at the Jackson end of the trail using the Weatherwax road trailhead.
Short trip down a connecter trail to the actual trail start.
The trail was in great shape with many new paved patches and crack fills, looks like the recently address the "roots" mentioned in the 2022 reviews.
12 foot wide provided lots of room.
The view was terrific as the trail bisects Lime Lake.
We drove a couple of hours to ride this trail and I would definitely do it again in the future.
The trail is pretty rough the entire time, never once being smooth, and unless you have a fat tire bike, you're going to feel every tree root (which are plentiful) and branch. This isn't worth the effort unless you're a local or intend to walk it. Nothing worth even seeing on the trail.
My wife and I took our Onewheel GTs on this trail, and it was very peaceful. Took us about 30 minutes to get from Kendallville to Rome City. If you bring a Onewheel, be sure to be mindful of cyclists and joggers.
For several decades the first 1.5 miles of the pumpkinvine nature trail heading out of Goshen was indeed crushed limestone. It was decent, but dusty, or iffy when wet. Well, this September the city finally decided to pave it and it’s awesome—wide, smooth asphalt, with limestone shoulders. In the last year, they also finished the section connecting CR 33 to CR 35 so the trail really feels like it’s finally done and among the nicer trails in the state. Be sure to check out Mooey’s, the Amish ice cream shop at mile marker 6. They’re open thru September 28.
There are a lot of great parks along this Trail. I have seen a lot of deep woods species like the Acadian Flycatcher and Wood Thrush and many warbler species as well during the spring and summer. One night in Spring when I was coming down the 76th street segment of the trail I also saw American Woodcocks doing their peenting calls and displays. I observed a Barred Owl and Wild Turkeys during a foray down the Kentwood Trail a couple of days ago. This trail takes you away from civilization and out into the wild, through farmland and through wooded areas. A great area to hike, bike and birdwatch in.
Late August I rode the Kal-Haven from South Haven to Kalamazoo and back. I suppose it should be called the Haven-Kal?
The trail was in perfect condition. Very well maintained. In fact midway there was a downed tree blocking the trail. On the way back a few hours later, it had been removed! Kudos to the trail maintenance team.
Ride with GPS indicated a total vertical ascent of 1436 feet, but my Wahoo recorded 630 feet. Typical of RWG, I guess. It's pretty flat. I didn't really notice any significant hills.
Lots of people on the trail, but not too many. Straight in many sections but never boring.
My only negative opinion of the trail are the stop signs. The trail crosses many country roads, some paved, some gravel, every 1 mile and often every half mile. So there are stop signs. And you need to stop and check because there are cars some going fast. But they get annoying and tiresome. Just when you build up your speed and are in a good cruising flow, you see a stop sign, and have to brake, downshift and unclip. And then build up speed again, only to unclip again, multiplied by 100 times over the out and back. Ug.
The trail is getting widened so it will no longer be a glorified sidewalk. The surface will be asphalt. I can't wait to give it another chance!
So well maintained! Even not paved portions are excellent. The trail is beautiful, it offers a lot of shade, and has great trail heads with dining options along the way. There was plenty of restrooms too.
