The Iron Belle Trail is a set of two trails that will span the state of Michigan. The two trails, one for hiking and one for biking, connects Ironwood in the Upper Peninsula and Belle Isle State Park in Detroit. When complete, the hiking trail will be 1,204 miles (1,938 km) long and the biking trail is 828 miles (1,333 km) long. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is coordinating the planning and construction of the missing trail segments.
It is "the longest state-designated trail in the nation." In its more than 2,000 miles (3,200 km) it crosses 48 counties and 240 townships.
