Details

Nothing is better than a walk, bike ride, (or even winter snowshoe outing) along a scenic, natural trail. Unless, of course, that trail is connected to miles upon miles of other trails, all ripe for the exploring. That's why a huge part of our mission is not only to forge new paths, but to connect existing ones - bringing together the people and the places we love. Our Existing Trails: Bay County Bay County River Walk/RailTrail (17.5 miles through Bay City, Bangor Township, Bay City State Recreation Area, Hampton Township, and Portsmouth Township) Bay City State Recreation Area (additional unpaved trails) BayZil Trail (trailhead off Hotchkiss Rd) Fraser Township Rail Trail Midland County Pere Marquette Rail Trail (30 miles from Midland to Coleman, with a loop around Chippewa Nature Center) Chippewa Nature Center Trail City Loop Trail Saginaw County Saginaw Valley Rail Trail (11 miles from St. Charles to Saginaw Township's Center Road Bridge Path) Saginaw Township George Olson Pathway City of Saginaw Riverwalk Kochville Township Multi-use Path Zilwaukee Pathway: a paved route at western shore of Saginaw River at Zilwaukee Riverfront Park, winds heads north and west through residential neighborhoods to its end at Venoy Road.
