Definitely a trail I will come again. Very nice and well kept area. Emergency markers are all over the place.
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!
Takes you through a nice lake with a great boardwalk. The section that passes by the water treatment facility was a bit smelly, but mostly a good trail.
The paved portions of this trail are a nice ride although at times you may need to 'portage' over (instead of under) the bridges at Van Dyke Ave, Riverland and M-53 due to standing water beneath.
North of M-59 you pass ballfields and go through a tunnel then watch on your right (east) side for a dirt path heading up a slight hill. This leads to a one-way bike/mountain bike trail which winds through the woods. There is good signage as you cross a few other trails. Good river views and surprisingly pretty views of the Clinton-Kalamazoo canal flowing by.
This is mostly a flat stretch until you reach Riverbends Park. Turn around here and take the first right (west) for a more challenging return ride. You can choose between green, blue (one) and yellow trail options along this stretch which serpentines and switch backs alongside the river. There are several built features on this stretch including log jumps, whoop di doos etc but all can be avoided by going around if you choose. There are a few tighter tree squeezes and a couple descents and climbs that could have you off your bike so take care the first time through.
Near the end of this SSE route you can easily loop back to the first (north north west bound) trail so this area is convenient if you'd like to do several 'laps' and make your visit most worthwhile.
Trail surface is primarily packed dirt with a few rocks, minimal sand and of course hundreds of roots!
At 60 years old I am not a 'rock-hopper' nor jumper so this trail is a very nice option where I can challenge myself with speed and trying not to put a foot down while staying safe.
I've only been on this trail during weekdays when very few people are around. Most folks are on the paved portions so you may have these trails mostly to yourself! As always, be on the lookout for hikers and 'wrong direction' riders.
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.
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.
Definitely worth doing. There are frequent road crossings and it is very straight. More trail diversity would be better. Cute towns along the way.
I'd only use it to jump onto Genesee Valley Trail myself, otherwise I'd recommend skipping it.
