The Border-to-Border (B2B) Trail is a partially constructed non-motorized trail system in Washtenaw County, Michigan. The system is planned to cover approximately 55 miles (89 km)[1] across Washtenaw County, along the Huron River.[2]

Planning for the B2B began in 1984, as the Huron River Greenway, a 35-mile (56 km) project headed by Washtenaw County. Since its inception, and its renaming to the Border-to-Border trail in the 1990s, the project has expanded its scope and incorporated additional funding from public and private sources.[3] When completed, the Border-to-Border Trail system will link Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor, Dexter, and Chelsea with off-street, non-motorized pathways for walking, bicycling, and other recreational activities.

The Border-to-Border Trail connects to multiple existing parks, and incorporates their trail systems. In addition to its route through parks, the B2B also includes segments built adjacent to rural roads, new and historic bridges, and segments on city streets.
