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.

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.

Accordion

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.

Kiwanis Trail

Enjoyable but with flaws

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

KT is an fun nature trail that has some issues that keep it from being perfect. The first is road crossings, which are quite frequent. Another is that the trial is somewhat bumpy, with said bumps being invisible until ride over them with your bike.

Still, the trail is a pretty good length, and keeps you away from urban noises and distractions for the most part, as it keeps you in a nature setting for the whole trip.

I would definitely recommend this trail to anyone considering it.

Main Trail

A Nature Loop

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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



Ram Trail

Enjoyable but it could be better

December, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Milford Trail

Hilly but Enjoyable

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.

ITC Corridor Trail (Canton)

Decent

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

This is a short 6-mile round trip jaunt. The trail is smooth and flat throughout, composed of gravel.

While it’s not hilly (it’s a flat trail) the elevation was enough for me to drop from 7 speed to 5 speed for the duration and it went fine after that.

There isn’t much to see here except endless power line towers (similar to the ITC Corridor in Novi) which stretch the entire trail.

All in all I do think this is a good trail and look forward to returning one day.

Manchester Bike Trail

Short and Rough

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.

Chelsea Community Wellness Path

Pretty Short

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

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.
