Exercise Guide: Superior Greenway and LeFurge Woods

This is NOT an in-person event.

These Exercise Guides are intended to assist and encourage exploration of parks and natural areas in the Huron Valley Group region. Please enjoy them on your own or with others.

The woods at LeFurge are one of the premier sites in SE Michigan for spring ephemerals and are beautiful anytime of year. The meadows along the Superior Greenway are particularly beautiful during the summer blossom period.
If you go to LeFurge Woods, please, stay on the trail! In spring the trails are muddy to extremely muddy; if you go off trail to avoid the mud, you just widen the problem area and kill plants. Sierra Club policy is to stay on the trail to ensure minimal impact on the natural areas we love.

Explore a woodland, meadow, and wetland preserve in Superior Township. We have 2 maps below: our map, showing all trails in the preserves, and our map with the routes we use for the Superior Greenway (3.5 miles) and LeFurge Woods (2.4 miles) hikes. If you are doing them both on the same day, be aware the Greenway has stretches with no shade - we recommend doing it first, then the shadier and cooler Woods trail. However you do them, enjoy the Preserves.
LeFurge Woods and much of the Superior Greenway are preserves managed by Southeast Michigan Land Conservancy (SMLC), http://smlcland.org/.
