We ride this trail on a beautiful fall day. It is very smooth and suitable for most any bike. I was comfortable on my ride bike and the wife was fine with her hybrid. Trail is heavily shaded in most place. Scenery is mostly wooded, with some wetlands and meadows mixed in. I would recommend this ride !
The map and all the text on the website indicate that the trail in Lapeer county is 20 miles long. I am told that all 20 miles is mowed regularly and evidently all the bridges and tunnels are in place. It all may be suitable for horseback riding or hiking or cross country skiing, but only the 4.5 miles south of Dryden has any sort of trail that cyclists would opt to ride. That segment is prepared gravel and well worn single track, intermixed. The web site needs to expressly note that is is the only segment cyclists would enjoy. The Oakland county segment is wonderful.
The trail is closed in sections through the end of November. It is being resurfaced, bridges are being replaced, and mile markers are being added. They just got done cutting down A LOT of trees so it’s a mess out there and it looks terrible…
This path is easy to ride with a gravel or hybrid bike south of Dryden.
North of Dryden, it turns into lawn over patches of mud. I saw people riding there, but they needed fat tires. You could hike or ride a horse, though. Be prepared for mosquitoes and biting flies.
The Part of this trail that is maintained by Oakland county is beautiful they are always working on the trail making it better, we start at the beginning off Joslyn and ride to Dryden , after that you can see a sign saying Polly Ann Trail but it's just land next to a building then nothing it's a part of the trail but it's just over grown grass and the path isn't like there, Trail Link and all maps show it goes to Imlay city but after Dryden the trail is never Maintained they really need to make the trail useable or drop that part off the trail map.
This trail has a nice variety of scenery, as it takes you through playgrounds, urban, swampland and long stretches. It's mostly sunny with a bit shade thrown in.
My wife and I just biked the trail for the 4th time in the last several years. We live 30 minutes east of Millington. The variety of plant and animal life keep us coming back.
A nice trail that's a little bit hilly.
A bit of both urban and nature on this one, with urban winning out but I would recommend if you're in the area.
Mostly gravel with amazing views.. one of our favorite spots to ride..
While my daughter was riding her horse across a bridge on 3/21/25 (from Millington to otter lake) the horse's leg went thru one of the boards on the bridge. It appeared that the boards had recently been replaced as there were pieces of cut boards in the creek bed below. Just wanted to let someone know before someone else falls thru and they or their horse gets injured. I'm sorry I don't know which bridge specifically, but like I said it was located between Millington and otter lake. Wasn't sure how else to contact anyone to report it (feel free to delete after whomever needa to know is told)
