Trail Overview

Kalamazoo River Bluffs Trail is an easy, fun off-road trail for beginners. Located near Lincoln Road, this route is easily accessible. This trail is typically easy with nothing technical. Most of the trail is a combination of sand and dirt and weaves through a beautiful forest with great fall foliage. This trail can have a lot of ruts to bounce you around. Like most Michigan trails, conditions are dependent on the weather. Recent rainfall can cause mud/water holes that can get rutted out quickly. Most of this trail is only wide enough for 1 vehicle with limited places to pass. Regardless of the conditions, this is a fun trail with some great river bluff viewpoints!

Status Reports

Nice short trail. Not too bumpy 2track. Beautiful overlook of the Kalamazoo River. Sandy drop off you can hike down but keep in mind it’s about 150 foot cl in mb back up to your vehicle.

The trails are in good shape, if not a bit bumpy. Kudos to the guy in the F150 that almost couldn’t get off the trail far enough to jump his GF with the passenger door wide open!

Tree down on the south turnaround wasn’t a problem, the rest of the trail was clear
