Split into two sections, one paved and the other wooded with packed dirt, it's a decent trail but nothing special.
The first part is completely paved with not a single bump or crack that I saw, and the second is the wooded part that's a bit rougher though with a better view of the St. Joseph's River.
GMPT is a enjoyable but short trail that's full of tight twists and turns to the point riding a bike might be a bit iffy.
You might want to walk this one but I do recommend it.
We rode from Bailey Park west on the Linear trail to the end. While the surface was pretty good, the fact that there are several busy road crossings, no signs or maps, no water or restrooms, made this trail undesirable. What a shame that the city of Battle Creek doesn't spend a few bucks to make this trail top-notch.
It's nice and smooth pavement, but it's so short (even round trip) that's it's only kinda worth it if you walk it.
A nice, quick, slightly hilly jaunt through the woods. Wouldn't recommend cycling through here, only walking.
This trail is one of those half-urban, half-nature trails. It's a bit difficult to stay on the urban parts, as trail markings are a bit rare, with the trail really hitting its stride in the nature segments.
A mix of urban & nature.
The nature segments are excellent, beautiful and lush but the urban parts can be difficult to stay, as markers are few.
Nothing to see or do here except a playground and crop fields
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.
Great trail with nice river scenery, easy access to Metropark amenities and picnic spots along the way. It also connects at the south end to Huroc Park and eventually Lake Erie, and to the I-275 Metro Trail between Willow and Lower Huron Metroparks. Great ride for anyone of any age!
