This is an enjoyable trail that takes you through downtown jackson that will take you through different landscapes including a bit of nature, behind a local elementary school, a park and a bit of urban setting.
As of 2023, the city has started to upgrade the section closest to Falling Waters Trail.
It's a good round trip experience and I would recommend it to anyone considering it.
Crossing pontiac trail going west is Extremely dangerous - you cannot see cars on the curve and they cannot see you! And they are driving 50 mph. It’s crazy that other crossings with much less traffic have lights but this one does not. Milford rd also needs a light. Otherwise it’s a great trail.
Applewood seems to be more of a connector type of trail, as opposed to a full trail by its self.
Parts of the trail seem prone to flooding when there's heavy rain, so be on the lookout for that.
There's a few sports fields and swing sets for kids but other than that, there isn't anything to see or do here.
This trail takes you through woods, behind a sports field and culminates in a residential area.
It's smooth and flat, with the exception of the final segment, which gets somewhat hilly.
Please note that of Dec '24 the last few yards are cut of by construction, with an unknown finish date.
I would recommend this trail to anyone looking.
This trail takes you through a brief jaunt through nature and culminates in a stroll inside Michigan's first ever state prison. This is a very quick trail, so you might want to walk instead any other mode of transportation.
This quickly traveled path is mix of both urban and nature, with nature being slightly more prominent. The north and south Kalamazoo rivers run alongside the trail at all time, so its rush is a constant presence. It's also a trail you can complete in no time at all, so you might want to walk this one and extend your time outside.
Similar to nearby Dalhem Center, this is not a trail per se, but a number of
them in an enclosed area, with the main trail only being a mile long (round trip). As bikes are not allowed at the colleges request, this is just a set trail loops that can be walked in a small location
This short & smooth trail is a pleasant but very brief through a secluded marsh/wetland spot.
You might want to consider walking this one instead of another mode of transportation, as it's over before it really begins.
Still, I would recommend the trail to anyone looking for one.
The trail is flat and smooth, with no cracks or bumps that I remember. It’s rarely straight, being full of twists and turns.
It is *very* hilly especially near the YMCA parking lot so be ready to shift gears in a jiff.
Boardwalks and small lakes help break up the scenery a bit, and road crossings are rare.
This trail hosts mountain bike trails within its boundaries that intersect with this trail, so use cation and keep your eyes peeled.
It’s a good 8+ mile journey that I would recommend traveling to visit.
This trail is a quick, done-in-under-30 min-type of trail. It starts off in a nature setting that quickly gives way to urban almost immediately, with nature returning in the last segment.
It is a little difficult to stay on this one as there is no trail marking or signage that I saw.
The last part is comprised of loose stone that might make a bike trip unpleasant, so consider walking this path.
There isn’t too much to this trail, being a round trip of 3 miles. It is nice and smooth for the most part.
You’ll spend most of your time in an urban setting except for a brief stint in a wooded section that ends far quickly for my taste.
It’s fine for locals, but I wouldn’t bother traveling to this one.
