Best City Walk Trails in Michigan

It's a very short and easy trail with a cute nature center at the beginning. Paved, lots of shade.

Well that’s a one and done lol. Save your time on this one.

Nice wide path with some stop and go but that is to be expected in town.

Nice view of beavers in their natural habitat.

Paved pathway all the way through. Not shoveled/cleared during winter. You could come across deer, fox and on the rare occasion, a coyote/wolf. Good to take the dogs on a walk or a straightforward run in the day time. Closes at dusk.

Not so much "trail" as hard gravel path through some trees. The main path is crushed limestone; there are some small dirt tracks off the path at a few places, but none are particularly interesting. If you live in the neighborhood, it is probably a better place to jog than your local sidewalk, but if you're getting in a car, the only reason to come here (instead of Lillie Park, the Arb, or Bird Hills) is if you don't want to be alone or in a woods. Britton Woods is much nicer than the Fitness Loop, but is tiny.

I ride this trail at least 3 times a week, there is additional 7 miles added to this trail. This trail goes to the Bay City Recreational Area and Tobico Marsh.

I did this trail on my road bike with my nephew who was on my mountain bike. I loved every bit of it. However it was not clearly marked near the head if the trail. We spent 20 min turned around and far away from the trail. Also, the trail is a little too bumpy in some areas for a road bike. I suggest riding in the street if you are on a road bike. Loved this ride. Great with friends or solo. I suggest hybrid, commuter, or mountain bike on the trail. Overall, great trail and good for the various activities listed.

An Urban style trail, lots of history

it was very nice

This is the Spring Lake Bike path. It runs through Central Park and the heart of Spring Lake. It's a fun and easy path with a lot of friendly locals.

10 miles today.
