This trail is well kept and beautiful scenery. I cannot wait to ride it again in the fall when the colors are full.
Great trail! Loved the scenery.
I rode the 8-foot-wide asphalt trail from Reed City to Clare. This trail now connects directly to the Pere Marquette Rail Trail. No more dodging cars on the road! The four mile section coming into Reed City from the east is very bumpy and in need of attention. There is also a section around the town of Sears that is in need of a little TLC. Several stops made the trip worth it like the Reed City Depot, Lake Depot and the city of Clare. Seven Slot Grille in Reed City has excellent food and a fun staff of workers. Don't miss the "Cops & Doughnuts" store in Clare. Not only does the store have excellent donuts, but they also have creative t-shirts, caps and other swag.
Paved with wooded road and beach landscape. Beautiful views
I started at Meijer on the east side. Trail in places is beautiful with grasses and woods but in others it crosses a lot of roads and in others it follows along the side of a road. The trail could use more markings in places you could get lost or off course. All in all I give it a 3 star rating.
We have now rode nearly every section of the trail several times and highly recommend it. My favorite parts are from Ashton to Cadillac and from Cedar Rapids to Grand Rapids.
We live nearby in Idlewild and have rode nearly every section of this trail except from Chase to Reed City. We enjoyed most all of it except from Reed City to Evart. The path is very bumpy and the scenery is not great.
This is a beautiful boardwalk trail through one of the few surviving wetlands along Lake Michigan. You can see the trout swimming along the river! Note that this is for foot traffic only, bikes and motorized conveyances of any sort are prohibited, except for motorized wheelchairs.
Today we rode from the trailhead/parking lot at Frankfort east to Beulah. The paved portion rode through pretty countryside, and the fall colors were very nice. The gravel section leading into downtown Beulah was not as much fun. It felt a little awkward rolling through people’s front yards. But a lovely afternoon on the bike! Almost no elevation change, and pavement in very good shape.
I applaud the State of Michigan for making this trail system possible. This truly is a mecca for the outdoor enthusiast in many capacities. Friends from Dayton (OH) and Kalamazoo recently convened in Cadillac to cycle the entire 92-mile route, and must confess that we had an absolute blast! This is an incredible trail network that has the capacity to enhance tourism and economic growth along with supporting wellness and fitness, and reinforce the State’s natural beauty and outdoor appeal. Michigan - You rock! Thank you! Gary Victor Kettering, OH
Just finishing up the entire trail this week and impressed. The only rough spots are coming north out of Grand Rapids to just north of Rockford it can be congested and bumpy from cracks and root heaves. From Big Rapids to Reed City is can be the same as well without the congestion. The entire trail is paved and is smooth and enjoyable to ride.
