MTB Trail is a short, easy mountain biking route in Burchfield Park and Nature Area in Lansing, Michigan. The city manages the land, and the trail is about 0.16 miles long. It is an out-and-back with a total climb of about 10 feet and a total descent of about 10 feet, so the ride stays almost flat. The steepest section is about 4% at the start. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Eaton Rapids show July highs around 82°F and lows near 61°F. Winters are cold, with January highs around 30°F. The Burchfield Hiking Trail starts about 0.1 mile away, and Anne's Playhouse, Frank's Stein (Maze 2 Blue) and Randy's Maze are each about 0.3 mile off.
