This trail currently is completed between Stockbridge and Pinckney, and has now been completed through Hamburg Township. It passes through wooded areas, rolling farmland, lakes, marshes, parkland, commercial and residential properties. It is approximately 20 miles long with an asphalt or gravel surface.
