Reviewed 2026-10-22. MDOT describes the asphalt North Shore route, while the actual reservoir manager map distinguishes green bicycle trail east of Fannin Landing from purple roadway bike lanes on the causeway. This guide uses only the eastern separated portion; no whole four-mile traffic-free claim. Public park admission elsewhere is separate. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.

Map and Directions

Use the named public start and its posted parking signs. The map reference identifies the facility or selected trail area; it is not a surveyed parking stall or navigable route line. Bicycle and e-bike rules can differ; only ordinary bicycle use is established unless noted.
