I love the bike path being available in this small town
The first 15ish miles are paved and then almost EVERYTHING after that is stone and mud and dirt and you are in the middle of nowhere. Now, I could have done more research but I was not prepared to have to cut through random properties and factories to continue the trail. We had to cross a live railroad just to stay on track. The majority of the view is just cornfield. There are also not many places to stop for food or bathrooms or anything. You cut through wauseon, which has some places, but other than that there isn’t a lot. Anyways- I’m traumatized!
You don't send a lot of time in a nature setting with this trail, with the first three or so mile south of Hillsdale being alongside a busy road and pretty rough pavement to boot, and with the last three odd miles being dirt, you might want to skip this trial completely. Falling Waters Trail is short distance driving away, so try that one instead.
Would love for them to keep going with this trail! Love it! Please put street signs where we stop! That would be great
Love this trail! Only thing I do not like is going thru downtown. A lot of shady people! Other than that!! Great trail and Eagle Marsh is the best!
First 2 miles from the north to the south are very bad! Water puddles and torn up asphalt. My wife had an accident when she was forced into the thicket. Do not recommend riding bike here. Never going back.!!
This mostly sunny trail offers an excellent round trip distance so you can get a good workout, but doesn't offer much in term of sightseeing.
Need street signs at the trails to see where you’re at!
This site says that the trail is 7 miles (one way), but my bike computer said it was only 5+ (one way), so does anybody know?
Anyway, this is a decent trail with some rough pavement near the Kendallville trailhead but is still pretty good.
