September, 2026. We went to see the newly completed trestles over Crockery Creek. We parked at Nunica Junction, 16980 Main St. in Nunica (next to the post office). Parking lot repaved with new signage. Restored caboose, picnic shelter and plastic job site restroom. The ribbon cutting for these two trestles was back in June. Very nicely done trestles and much safer. Beautiful craftsmanship. You take a one mile hike on a dirt path to get to. Possibly rideable on a gravel bike. We opted to go on foot. There are large tree branches hanging over the bridges and railing just hoping no storms knock them down which could damage the railings/bridges before the trail ever gets anywhere. Trees are awfully close to the bridges, maybe there are plans to cut back and remove. Trail is not 18 miles in length, someday in the future there are plans to continue to Coopersville. This is 2026, so we will see when. As of now trail is 6ish miles from Nunica to Spring Lake plus this 1 mile dirt section towards Coopersville.
September, 2026. We biked the Northern end a few days prior. This day we started in Montague and biked North to New Era and back. Another enjoyable ride on a beautiful well maintained trail. Trail goes through mostly shaded areas. Trail services in Montague near the trail. Always a great ride on this trail! In Montague the trail connects with the White Lake Bike Path. Also in Montague is the World's largest weathervane.
September, 2026. We entered this trail from the White Lake Pathway. Biked to North Muskegon and back on this trail. Most of the trail is straight as an arrow with a few turns which go around the old rail line. Mostly open skies, some shaded areas along the trail. Asphalt pavement in very good condition. We found a restaurant off Tyler road that is trail friendly. Mile markers along the trail which indicate the distance between there and Hart, MI. We also biked the Hart-Montague Trail from White Lake Pathway.
September, 2026. One our favorite Michigan trails. 22+ miles in length, asphalt paved in very good condition. Goes through several small old railroad towns. Scenery is mostly open farmlands and some wooded. The towns along the trail are very welcoming. This trail runs from Montague @ White Path Bikeway to Hart. Hart trailhead mile marker 0. Montague is mile marker 22. We parked in New Era, about mid-way. Biked to Hart and back for 26 mile round trip. This was our first visit to this trail of the week.
September, 2026. We stayed in the area and biked it one evening. Also used it to connect with the Fred Meijer Berry Junction Trail and the Hart-Montague Trail. This trail goes through the city of Whitehall, of course there are going to be road crossings! Paved trail in good condition, some cracks with grass growing up through could use attention and maybe some weed wacking in areas other than that, not bad. Eateries nearby. You can park at the Chamber Office, or behind the grocery store is trail parking and restrooms and also parking at Howmet Park. The city of Whitehall is in the process of constructing public restrooms across and up the street from the Chamber.
September, 2026. Nice little trail which connects to 2 longer trails in Montague/Whitehall. Across the street from the World's Largest Weathervane. There is a new dog park along the trail.
The 8-foot-wide asphalt trail surface was in excellent condition. The trail was meticulously maintained and provided a good canopy of shade. The village of New Era was a good place for a rest stop. Don't miss the "Metal Man with Arrow" along the trail just northwest of the Country Dairy Store. The real treasure was the 24' Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz on the shore of Hart Lake about 1/2 mile north of the trail's endpoint. Be aware that there are limited restaurant options in Hart and even less on weekends.
This trail is beautiful. If we do it again, I think we would start at Baldwin Park and ride over to Tower Park. There’s a lot of sun on the west side of the trail. It’s also great that it connects to the Heartland trail so you can take that to Flat River Brewing. They have great beer, flat bread pizzas and meatloaf sandwiches.
Don’t be fooled by the photos of the path, IT IS PRETTY MUCH ALL GRAVEL. I went with a friend on this trail expecting maybe a small gravel segment and mostly paved, however it was definitely not. It’s a pretty trail, but not what was advertised. If you’re into gravel riding, you’d love it, but it’s intense. Pretty good scenery, but should be advertised as gravel.
The trail is narrow and tight all throughout, and one section is eroding away into a nearby stream, so you might want to avoid this one.
The low elevation will provide a good workout for those looking for it, and this is a pretty decent trail.
