Northern Tier Trail

Smooth pathway, a bit lacking in scenery

March, 2025 by ryanplewis05_tl

It's a nice easy ride and a great route for students commuting to and from campus. However, it's kind of squeezed between apartment complexes and residential areas in spots, which kind of cuts into the scenery a bit.

Fred Meijer Clinton-Ionia-Shiawassee Trail

Great Ride!

March, 2025 by ryanplewis05_tl

Nice, straight trail. Plenty of places for parking and amenities in each town. I wish it were paved all the way through, but in general the crushed limestone isn't a huge obstacle between towns. Highly recommend!

Lansing River Trail

Scenic and Extensive, a Bit Bumpy

March, 2025 by ryanplewis05_tl

The sheer length of the trail is what makes it really worthwhile in my opinion. It covers South Lansing, Downtown, Hawk Island Park, Potter Park Zoo, and MSU's campus, which is a nice sampling of Greater Lansing. It's also nicely forested and quite scenic, especially in the fall. With that being said, the downtown stretch and the bit between Aurelius and Kalamazoo are both in need of repair; everything else is pretty much perfect, though!

Northern Tier Trail

Good Trail

March, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is a nice trail, with offshoot branches that help to differentiate it from other trails.

Pavement is mostly sooth except in the last section, what I guess are plant roots cracking upwards the pavement so badly that it actually launched my bum off the seat an inch or two.

Martin Luther King Equality Trail

A Good Trail

February, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Huron Valley Trail

dangerous crossings

January, 2025 by detroitgirl11

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.

Island Lake Trail Connector

Use it as a Connector Trail

January, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's so short you don't spend on any time on it, so you want either walk it or use it to hop on a different trail.

Applewood Trail

Rough and a bit Unimpressive

January, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

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.

South LyonTrail

A nice Trail with a Decent Length

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Matthaei Botanical Gardens Trail

Nice but short

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

This is nice trail to do on foot (any other mode and it's over in a jiff lol) that is always curvy and smooth.

Massasauga rattlesnakes are known to be in this area, so please be aware.

Grand River Arts Walk

Unique

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Albion River Trail

Part urban, part nature

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.
