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.

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.

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.

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.

Watkins Lake County Preserve and State Park

Almost Perfect

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

The trail is made up of three segments of roughly (?) equal length.

There are no benches, trashcans, or water fountains on this trail, so be plan accordingly.

Signage gives warning about the possibility of ticks on this train, so maybe stick to the main path, ignore any offshoots, and don’t brush against any plants.

I found the trail to very enjoyable from start to finish, with my only two complaints being: it’s rather short, being maybe six miles roundtrip, and the other being that the surface is dirt and stone, so unless you have a gravel, dirt, or fat tire bike, you might want consider walking this one.

Road crossings are rare.

I would recommend the trail to anybody looking to avoid an urban trail and connect with nature.

Falling Waters Trail

An Excellent Trail

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

This is an excellent trail, bar none. It is an predominantly nature trail, with no real urban distractions like cars zipping by. It is 99% smooth and free of bumps (with the only exception being miles 8 through 10 by Weatherwax trailhead being a little rough).

Road crossings are somewhat frequent, so be on the lookout for those.

Benches and trash cans abound for those who need them, and mile markings also can be seen throughout the trail.

Sculptures been added to the last two miles, adding to the scenery.

There is an extender to this trail just past the Concord trailhead, adding about another mile or so to the experience if you're up for the full ride.

I can not recommend this trail strongly enough.

Those looking for a good nature trail need go no further than FWT.
