Whether you are looking for a short trail or a long treacherous hike, here are some of the places to go hiking in Metro Detroit.
Paint Creek Trail

Kensington Metro Park
Kensington Metropark in Milford has an 8.5-mile paved hiking and biking trail around Kent Lake, plus a 7-mile nature trail just for hiking. It offers a stunning view while taking on the trail.
Carpenter Lake Nature Preserve
