Columbus County Park
An outdoor adventure awaits you at Columbus County Park!
Rolling hills, forest trails, prairie meadows and the beautiful Belle River are
what give Columbus County Park that “up north” feel. The natural features of
Columbus County Park make it a great place to enjoy trail walking, bird
watching, fishing, horseback riding and mountain biking. In the winter, it’s a
great place to enjoy winter sports such as sledding and cross country skiing.
The park is located in
the southwest part of the county, two miles north of
Gratiot Road on Bauman Road. The main park entrance is located on the west side
of Bauman Road north of the railroad tracks.
A rustic two-mile looped trail is located on the north side of the Belle River
and consists of mowed grass, farm lanes and two-track. On the south side of Belle River,
a rustic nature trail has been added that goes along the scenic Belle River, through wetlands
and maple forest. The looped nature trail is accessible from the Big Hand Road parking lot. A separate looped
equestrian trail provides opportunities for horseback riders.
A park lodge with
modern restrooms, rental facilities and a picnic pavilion is located near the
main parking lot and sledding hill. Please call the parks office for reservation
information at (810) 989-6960.
All improvements at Columbus County Park are paid for with St. Clair County
Parks and Recreation millage funds.
