North Central State Trail

question about tires

August, 2026 by lazerbook

I'm planning on doing this trail as part of a longer trek. My bike has 700x35 tires. Would anyone care to share if this would be doable or should I go with more of a mountain bike tire?

Boyne Valley Trailway

Great Ride!

July, 2026 by donnacreamer_tl

I loved this easy trail from Boyne Mountain into Boyne City. We rode about 15 miles there and back. We enjoyed shopping and lunch in Boyne City, during our stay at Boyne Mountain. It’s a great family activity!

Little Traverse Wheelway

Closed 2 miles North of Charlevoix

July, 2026 by junkmail1968

About 2 miles North of Shanahan Field the trail is closed and you’ll need to ride on the shoulder of 31 for about 3/4 of a mile. All as of 7/21/2026

Little Traverse Wheelway

We rode our ebikes - did not see any signs but we were more in the Petosky area. We saw several ebikes. In several places it goes right by the lake. It's shady in spots and we stopped for ice cream! ;)

Beautiful spots to stop and enjoy - a truly nice ride!

North Eastern State Trail

11.5 miles in, there is a closure due to a washed out culvert. There’s no way to get around it.

Boyne Valley Trailway

not on Google Maps as of June 2026, but well worth it

June, 2026 by deltron2023

This trail takes you from point city to Moyne Falls. As of June 2026 it’s in great condition with a gradual inclined from point city to Boyne Falls. Once you get to the Boyne Falls ski resort, some of the signage breaks down, but it’s easy enough to navigate to the main trail and Des Moines Falls. You do have to cross the highway and there’s no dedicated light to stop traffic, but it was easy to cross. Highly recommend this trail for bikes, e-bikes, a training ride while on vacation.

Boyne Valley Trailway

Beautiful tree diversity

June, 2026 by ispaniel.rp

Very well kept trail. Nice ride with a few little hills.

St. Ignace to Trout Lake Trail

Glad I had the experience. Won't attempt again.

January, 2026 by rpbertsch

Rode from St Ignace to King's Fish Market, and back in early fall. About 10 miles each way. Trail is rough, big gravel, potholes, dirt, some sand, and water running across the road in a couple of places. ATVs don't slow for bicycles. Good experience but the trail beat us up. Riding mountain bike with front shock and 44mm tires.

Huron Sunrise Trail

Maps Needs Updating

August, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

Everything east of south shore park is an active quarry/mine operation that i doubt is accessible to the public.

The trail I found to be a bit of a mixed bag, as you can't really see Lake Huron for large portions of the trail, as it gets obscured by sand dunes or dense woods, it's a bit hilly at times and runs alongside traffic for long sections.

You might want to skip this one unless you're local.

Boyne Valley Trailway

Great Trail

August, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

An excellent trail with a great round trip, wonderful scenery (takes you through nature and urban), and a nice scent of pine in the air to round things off.
