Recent Trail Reviews

Kensington Metropark Trail

Good Wokout

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is a pretty hilly trail with few stretches of flat, level terrain.

Southwest Greenway

Decent

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

IT's an okay trail, but as it's so short, it's only real use is to connect to the Detroit Riverwalk, otherwise skip it.

Clinton River Spillway Bike Path

Average

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's not bad, but really only worth it if you're a local.

Accordion

Lake Erie Metropark Trail

Decent

November, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's sunny, wide and open, a good round trip, and has a great view of Lake Erie. The northern portion by Carlson High School is pretty rough but evens out quickly.

Fred Meijer White Pine Trail State Park

Awesome trail

October, 2025 by annette.stallworth.parker

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.

William Field Memorial Hart-Montague Trail State Park

Highly Recommend

October, 2025 by annette.stallworth.parker

This is an excellent trail, great signage, benches, picnic tables, bathrooms, food stops along the way and beautiful views. The tree identifications are wonderful. Highly recommend. The trail is in excellent condition.

Pere Marquette State Trail

almost every section

October, 2025 by annette.stallworth.parker

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.

Muskegon Lakeshore Trail

Truly disappointed

October, 2025 by annette.stallworth.parker

I drove quite a way to have difficulty finding parking, and signage. We chose the path because of the miles thinking we could get a good exercise but never saw half of the trail because we were lost. No very good pretty either.

Musketawa Trail

trash

October, 2025 by jotunnstrong

This trail caused me to actually fall into a sink hole and brake through the cement . It has holes, huge cracks, unseen and discovered sink holes, horse crap randomly left around. It would be a beautiful path and was at one point but horse back and snowmobile riders have trashed it. And there was literally no maintenance kept on it.

Clinton River Park Trail - Macomb County

Hilly and Narrow

October, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

It's a mostly shady trail, with a few moments of sunshine to be found. The trail becomes very narrow and twisty south of m59, so be careful in this section.

Clinton River Trail - Oakland County

Washed Out

October, 2025 by kjhgfd

Sad to say it's been over a year, and the best section of this trail is still closed. It was a great connection to the Macomb Orchard Trail. Any info on a fix would be greatly appreciated. Would like to help out in any way possible.
Detour route has heavy traffic.

Arcadia Marsh Trail

A lovely walk, but bikes are prohibited

October, 2025 by gogetyoursmock

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.
