Bicentennial Park Pathway

too hilly

Too hilly

Fred Meijer Berry Junction Trail

great addition

June, 2023 by andrea.sinn

We were so impressed by this section of trail. It was pretty and clean. The wildflowers and sculptures were delightful too!

Watersmeet to Land O'Lakes Trail

Too Rough, Even For All-Terrain Vehicles

June, 2023 by rgoff_tl

I’ve traveled the route on a number of occasions between Land O’ Lakes and Watersmeet. This has to be one of the most torturous routes I’ve ever been on. Terribly washboarded, and apparently seldom maintained. Come on MI!

Accordion

Fred Meijer M-6 Trail

Too Much Traffic

Avoid this one if you can

Van Buren Trail State Park

not a rail-to-trail

June, 2023 by nowlinco

Just awful! Caught it south of Covert and quickly abandoned it. Chose to use the county roads.

William Field Memorial Hart-Montague Trail State Park

great trail

May, 2023 by mdanz

One of the nicest rails to trails in Michigan. The path is almost perfect - very smooth. Easy to ride with only slight ups and downs. The scenery is beautiful. We typically start at the Country Dairy in New Era. Plenty of parking there. Then if you time it right you end up back there for lunch or ice cream when you’re done.

Macomb Orchard Trail

boring

May, 2023 by matthewgriffith9

I rate this trail with 3 stars because of the good asphalt surface and the connection to other trails. The majority of the trail is boring north of 29 Mile heading towards Richmond. Not many places to stop along the trail and enjoy the view, because there aren’t any, definitely needs improvement.

Clinton River Trail

rough ride

May, 2023 by matthewgriffith9

A very nice trail with enough greenery to feel secluded from urban sprawl. The majority of the trail through Rochester Hills is not “bike friendly”, recycled asphalt does not make for the best riding experience. The trail is manageable for a cyclist with experience riding in many different trail conditions, I would not recommend this trail for a novice cyclist.

Mackinac Island Loop (State Highway 185)

trail great

May, 2023 by lyonsjustin1958

We are a 63 year old couple. We took our own bikes across on the ferry after paying a fee. There are many bike rental shops but we were glad we had our own bikes. The 8.2 mile loop was a nice ride except we hit the mayfly’s hatch. Recommend avoiding this time. Trail was smooth and not as crowded as town. The interior roads of the island were more isolated and no mayfly. Loved having to avoid horse and carriage.

Kal-Haven Trail State Park

just okay

May, 2023 by lyonsjustin1958

63 year old couple. We biked from Gober west 12 miles and back. It was more of a two track road most of the way. A few soft patches and rough spots snuck up on us. But the rest was fairly smooth. After we rode we drove north to Cranes Pie and Pastry to try a pie flight. Worth the drive. We did not want to bike the other direction.

Leelanau Trail

orchards

May, 2023 by lyonsjustin1958

Stayed at Anchor Inn which was close to a trailhead and reasonably priced. Closer to Travers City we were told the trail was along the road so we went to the next closest trailhead. A smooth paved trail. Orchards were a nice break in the tree lines.

William Field Memorial Hart-Montague Trail State Park

Trees

May, 2023 by lyonsjustin1958

63 year old couple. Very smooth trail. Tall trees or orchards are along most of the trail. The variety of trees are labeled so us prairies folks can identify them. There are large oak trees though out the ride. A stop at Country Dairy is a must.
