About this trail
In Hiawatha National Forest, Michigan, Valley Spur Bike - Just Beechy (USFS trail 3133L) covers 11.5 mi of National Forest System trail. Everything below comes straight from the US Forest Service National Forest System Trails dataset — length, surface, slope-derived difficulty, and the specific bike and e-bike designations on record — so you can check legality before you load up. The tread is mapped as native material. Based on slope, this is a Easy trail (grade band 0-5%); that reflects gentle gradient and is not the same as a technical MTB difficulty rating. Mountain bikes are allowed, with a May–Nov season in the data. The agency lists no Class 1, 2 or 3 e-bike designation here; absent a local order to the contrary, that means e-bikes are not an allowed use on this trail. The route is mapped as USFS Trail Class 3 on the agency's 1-to-5 development scale, where 1 is the most primitive, minimally maintained tread and 5 is the most developed. Treat this as a planning reference rather than a live conditions report, and verify any time-sensitive closure or order with the ranger district that manages Hiawatha National Forest.
