Walking Trail Description
This densely wooded and hilly park has almost 4 miles of assorted hiking trails in varying lengths. The main trail loop is around 2 miles long, with plenty of offshoots. There is even a hidden creek - see if you can find it!
Visitors love the hearty hike. Coming in at nearly 200 acres in size, the park is heavily wooded and is a great place to treat yourself to a long, shaded walk under towering oak, maple, and cherry trees. There are two trailheads - and both start with an uphill climb.
*Note* This park allows bow hunting in season.
This trail is Open all year. Dawn to dusk.

Walking Trail Description
This is an excellent place to put some miles on your shoes. Trails are mostly wooded, passing through rolling hills.
Right after you hit the trail, there’s a bridge with an active creek babbling through. Beware that this creek can cause the trails to be very muddy.
A hiking backpack would be preferable to bringing a jogging stroller. These trails are not handicap accessible.
Shortly after the yellow trail connects to the blue, there's a wooden boardwalk. Be sure to follow its twists and turns as you hunt for wildlife.
Hiking is the primary way to enjoy Seidman Park in warm weather months. It is a popular place for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in the wintertime.
Don't forget the bug spray!
This trail is Open daily during daylight hours.

Walking Trail Description
A section of the North Country Trail passes through Fallasburg Park.
There are various hiking trail options at Fallasburg Park, some paved and some through woods.
The hike from the main enclosed shelter to the covered bridge and then back up past the creek is a relatively easy (though longish) walk, but you’ll want a baby carrier for smaller kids.
TIP: While Covered Bridge road does take you back in time in a way, remember that you’re still walking on a paved road that cars occasionally travel on – be extra watchful of small children.
This trail is May 1 - October 31; Open 7 AM to sunset

Walking Trail Description
Four loop walking trails that are relatively short and easy to hike with children, if you're up for a challenge you could use a jogging stroller here. My favorite part is the hike through the tall pines.
Trails are open dawn until dusk 365 days a year. There are about 3 miles of trails.
Leashed dogs are welcomed. Horses are allowed on the Corncob Corner Trail. The Luminary Hike in December is a holiday highlight.

Walking Trail Description
The paved walking paths here are smooth and stroller-friendly. The path is one-mile long on the South Park side and offers views of the Grand River. This would be a great place for kids learning to bike ride to practice.
The walk over the bridge is very nice and pets on a leash are welcome. You can easily walk from the South Park to the North Park to get ice cream in the summer when the concessions are open.
This trail is Year round 8 AM - dusk
