The Linear Park Trail at Linear Park in Grand Haven, Michigan is an easy 0.7-mile out-and-back paved trail that features views of Grand River.

Linear Park is located on Harbor Island directly across the channel from Chinook Pier. The park, and this trail, run from the Third Street Bridge to the power plant, where the South Channel joins the Grand River. Hikers will find plenty of nice views of the South Channel and Grand River along the entire trail.

Amenities
Hikers will find picnic tables with grills, platforms for fishing, and interpretive signs.

Note: 
Owing to the current very level of the water table in Michigan, this park has been significantly compromised in certain spots, including total collapse of some of the paved path. Hikers are encouraged to exercise extreme caution.
