Fort Custer Recreation Area - Augusta Michigan Mountain Bike Trails

Offering a rainbow of loops, this well-organized and popular 16-mile multiple-use trail system offers something for everyone. The difficult Red Loop challenges riders with logs, whoop-de-dos, steeper climbs, and twisting Granny’s Garden. The mellower Green Loop rolls next to Eagle Lake with a steep switchback climb and two shallow creek crossings. The Blue and Yellow Loops complete the rainbow with mostly obstacle-free trails, perfect for the novice cyclist. Tread: 1.5 miles of paved road, 0.2 mile of dirt road, 15.1 miles of singletrack.
