The entire trail is very uneven throughout, rough, and with nothing to see, I would urge you either skip this trail or maybe walk it.
This sunny trail has some slight hills and tight curves near the end, after taking you through dense woods and weed fields, so consider giving it a try.
It has a nice round trip, with mostly smooth pavement except by Roseland park, so maybe skip that section.
It's an okay trail with a nice round trip, and some enjoyable sights.
Nice and open to nature with a brief urban stint with not too many road crossings.
I would recommend this trail to anyone looking.
It's mostly an urban trail, with not too much nature.
Geese were allover the place and so was their poop.
Good round trip though.
Bird poop is common throughout this trail, especially by American Park, to the point you might want to only walk that segment instead of riding a bike.
Pavement is mostly smooth, though American Park turns into loose stone for a stretch, and overall scenery is good for the trail.
A good that's slightly marred by a brief urban stint, you'll thankfully spend most of your time in a nature setting with this route.
Mostly flat, you'll get both sun & shade with this trail, though sights are few.
You can also use this trail to link up with multiple other trails in Portage, including Millennium Trail, Lovers Lane Bikeway, Romence Road Bikeway, Shaver Road Bikeway, and Northwest Portage Bikeway.
This one should be avoided, as with frequent road crossings and nothing to see, you are going to spend almost all of your time in a urban, neighborhood setting.
BCT is a great experience for anyone looking for a worthwhile trail.
Buck Creek river runs alongside most of the trail, providing a comforting susurrus.
Nature is in abundance throughout the entire trail, with some urban popping up here and there. Bird poop is everywhere in the Wedgwood Park section, so check shoes/bike tires.
Pavement is mostly smooth, with the exception of Wedgwood Park, where it can be a little bumpy.
I would recommend this trail to anyone looking.
The first section is very rough with potholes and bumps everywhere, the path itself is very narrow with no scenery to speak of.
The second section is a vast improvement of the first, as the path is wider and free from cracks and holes but with nothing to see except power lines, and road crossings are very common in this part.
I might consider skipping this one.
