Mabury State Park

Closest Major City: Northville

Distance: 5.00 miles (8.05 KM)

Description:
A small trail by looks only. It has something for seemingly everyone. From the trail head the first 1/4 is very fast and lightly technical at the same time, which approaches the only heavy grade on the trail (I call it the reverse staircase) from there the trail becomes more and more technical but fear not for there are many places to stop and get some water and a sit (benches installed at key points) there is another hill at about the 1/2 way mark that is almost a downhiller's dream, it is THE staircase (for this trail at least) it's a quick ride but who said you can't go more than once.

Directions to the trail:
From Detroit head west on 96 until either 275 or get off on Sheldon, take 275 north and get off on Eight Mile road and head west untill you come to Beck Road and turn left the entrance will be on your right. From Sheldon (where the Ford plant is) go north and take any of the mile roads west (5mile, 6mile, 7mile, or 8mile) and go north on Beck (unless on 8mile)
