It's a pretty decent trail with a great round trip.
This trail offers a mix of sun and shade, frequent road crossings. Half the trail is hard dirt/stone and the other half is asphalt.
If you're in the area looking for a good trail, this is definitely one to consider.
While it has an excellent round trip if you the whole trail (including backtracking), the pavement is in rough shape with very few portions being smooth, you're alongside traffic for long segments, and some of it set in urban settings, you might want to choose a different trail altogether.
The only drinking fountain that I came across is by a baseball field by Brooks St. & Garfield Ave.
Nice trails, urban southerntrail snd wooden northern trail.
The Battle Creek linear park was very disappointing. Many parts of the trail have wide cracks across the width every 10 feet. If you do not have a flat tire bike this is very jarring. There are also no water or restroom stops on the entire length. And no directional signage or mile markers. There are several areas that are quite hilly. The only reason we gave it a two star instead of a one was there were a couple miles along the river that were smooth and very pleasant.
So the trail is smoother for the Saranac To Ionia portion than it is from Saranac to Lowell. Both are mostly gravel, but the gravel is better heading East from Saranac than west. I recommend parking at the Saranac boat launch and heading East to Ionia.
I love this trail but why is the bridge still closed? It was closed most of last year and it looks like nothing has been done (bridge is on east side of island lake entrance). This is a complete closure which prohibits anyone from taking a circular route.
Not much to see on this circle trail. At the time of this review the offshoot to Oxford is closed and under construction. Part of the trail is a glorified sidewalk.
Just had another close call at the Pontiac trail “crossing” This intersection needs to be a safety priority!!
If you're looking for a nature trail, this isn't it.
You'll only see endless cornfields until you get to Spring Grove Park, where neighborhoods take over.
This is also a pretty hilly all throughout, with some road biking required if you're doing the full trail.
