Beautiful trail! Great for cycling, walking, and running! If cycling, you can connect with the Airline Trail >> Huron Trail going west or the Clinton River Trail >> Macomb Orchard Trail going east. A lot of water, marshes, small streams, wildlife, etc! I've seen egrets nesting, bitterns, herons, bald eagles, eastern wood pewees, and a variety of other birds, as well as turtles and frogs. The deer are abundant and friendly.
The mostly shady (some sun peeks through) main path is absolutely wonderful and crack free (offshoots are a different matter), with a excellent round trip and ultimately connects to the MI air line trail, I would strongly recommend this one to anyone looking.
The two miles by McHattie Park are pretty rough, you might want to skip that section.
