Apple Blossom Trail

Side Note..

September, 2025 by the_masseuse

Forgot.. it’s quite hilly! ¿ Curvy too.. The asphalt in Caspian is a bit rough but the trails are worth it!

Apple Blossom Trail

Beautiful

September, 2025 by the_masseuse

I’m not sure why there’s no reviews for this trail, but it’s very pretty with lots of history. It seems short, but on the Caspian end it hooks up with Heritage Trail taking you to Pentoga Park. It’s just over 9 miles one way. Very scenic and pretty (especially in Fall) runs along the road and crosses it several times. Whole way is paved with shady spots and benches.

Watersmeet to Land O'Lakes Trail

Rough

September, 2025 by the_masseuse

Unless you have a fat tire and don’t mind ATVs have at it. I tried with my gravel bike and turned back after about 50 feet.

Polly Ann Trail

From Dryden South

September, 2025 by normkern

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.

Kensington Metropark Trail

Wonderful Loop

September, 2025 by pkloren

Biked the 8.4 mile loop today with great weather. Not too many others on the path with a mixture of walkers, bikers, and in-line skaters (bless their hearts). Today is Friday, September 12th. As such, while the beaches were open, no food facilities, rental facilities or other manned attractions were open. Having said that, the trail was magnificently maintained and I enjoyed the 1+ hour experience

Thomas Township Trail

Great

September, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This wonderful open air trail offers fantastic views for a pretty good trip and connects to the Saginaw Valley Rail Trail.

Black Creek Nature Trail

Decent

September, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is a quick but nice trail.

Fred Meijer White Pine Trail State Park

Fred Meijer Heartland Trail

Not Smooth

September, 2025 by rwwerner

Rode from Greenville to 3 miles east of Edmore. Constant bumps from roots and separation in the pavement. Don't know how the other reviewers called it smooth. Scenery was wonderful.

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.

Buffalo Ridge Trail

Decent

August, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's bit rough and downhill for the first segment by the ymca but becomes smooth afterwards and has some nice scenery.
