A great ride on this beautiful trail. It’s a little tricky in Kalamazoo proper but other than that it’s very scenic, peaceful and well-maintained.
Chicagoland biker here who has done many trails in the Midwest (Paul Bunyan in Minnesota, I&M/Hennipan across Illinois, etc). This is a good trail, maybe even a great one. I just completed the entire 92.6 mile route. Couple things-- the trail is AMAZING if you like shade. And for the most part, it's relatively smooth (surface is more coarse/bumpy from Big Rapids north to Reed City). For that reason, a hybrid tire or thicker is probably your best bet. Could be a challenge for road bike enthusiasts. That said, a road bike would be amazing from Cadillac to Reed City, then Big Rapids to Grand Rapids. Also...reminder that you gain elevation going south to north. A better ride, especially if you catch a good northern wind at your back, would be going Cadillac to Grand Rapids. Still, a great experience!
We got on at 15 Baldwin Street (near the water treatment plant) and rode 16 miles out and back for 32 total. Temp was perfect with pre rain clouds keeping us cool. Many parts of the trail go through wooded areas with great shade but you also ride on roads in business areas. Pay attention to signs because some of them are hard to notice and it is easy to get off the trail. Also they could do a better marking spots in the asphalt where cracks have formed.
We tried to access the trail at the Marne trail head and parking lot. The parking lot was full of construction equipment and material and there is a sign that said the Trail is closed until further notice.
This a trail that alternates between nature and urban, with urban winning out. It has nice scenery and great round trip
The pavement in the bottom half could be a bit nicer, but all things considered, this trail is pretty decent one, as long as you don't mind a mostly sunny trail with not too much to see here.
The Spoonville trail is now part of a set of trails that connect for a loop ride that is all on path or a small section of sidewalk in Grand Haven.
Start at the south trailhead of the Spoonville trail, the south end of the M-231 Bridge. This trail head lot serves the Spoonville and the Idema Explorers trail. Head west on the Idema trail. New trail completed in 2024 (not showing on Trail Link) takes you into Grand Haven. Follow wayfinding signs or GPS to Jackson street and US-31, concrete trail on the north bound side of the road will take you over the drawbridge, follow signs for Spring Lake. After crossing the Spring Lake channel, take the trail to the right that loops under that bridge along the channel. This puts you on a section of the Lakeside Trail, that connects to the North Bank Trail. North Bank ends at the North end of the Spoonville trail which you can follow back to the start point, ending the ride with a second river crossing on the M-231 bridge.
The North Bank Trail is now part of a 22 mile trail loop with 2 crossings of the Grand River.
The east end of the trail connects to the Spoonerville trail. The Spoonerville trail north end is Nunica (at the North Bank Trail) and runs south crossing the Grand River on the M-231 bridge. The south end of this trail connects with the Idema Explorers Trail, which connects into Grand Haven on the latest section completed in summer 2024.
Cross the river again on the US-31 drawbridge, Follow the signs to Spring Lake and you will end up on a section on the Lakeside Trail the connects to the west end of the North Bank trail.
Great loop that can be completed 100% on non-motorized trail utilizing a small section of city sidewalks in Grand Haven.
The Idema Explorers trail is a long term project to create a greenway connection between Grand Haven and Grand Rapids along the Grand River.
Small sections have been completed but they are not connected.
The most recent section, (Built Summer of 2024) has opened up a great loop trail for riders who want to stay on trails and out of roads.
The new section connects existing trail near M-231 with trail along Mercury drive.
We started our ride at the Connor Bayou county park. Rode continuous trail into Grand Haven. There is a short section of surface streets but sidewalks are availble. You can connect to the Grand Haven Waterfront Trail over the US-31 drawbridge (north on side walk from US-31and Jackson Street),then connect to segment of the Lakeside Trail, which connects to the North Bank Trail. North Bank ends at the Spoonerville trail which brings you back across the Grand River on the M-231 bridge. Short trip on the Idema Explorers trail back to Connor Bayou.
While I look forward to completion of more sections of this trail, this 22 mile loop with 2 river crossings is a great ride.
Parked at the Galesburg Augusta Primary school ¿ Meander from school to the trail ¿ Country like setting transitioned to a road-hugging trail¿ Riding alongside car traffic ¿ The trail was pretty smooth and the wildflowers were in bloom.
A mostly sunny trail, with bits of shade here and there, road crossings are semi-frequent, so if you're looking to build up speed, this trail might not be for you. With that said, I would recommend this trail to anyone whose looking for a good trail.
