Best Outdoor Gyms In Detroit Near Me

Shawn Gamble: Nice atmosphere

SadSnoopDoggyDog: One of my favorite places to skate, I love the vibe of it and how many safety precautions are put in place, very well lit when walking/biking/or skating at night, smooth and large trail that goes about 2 miles.

Natalia N: Great place to walk, run, ride a bike, or take your pet for a walk. It can get busy at times, but the art makes it worth it.

leon johnson: Fit for an athlete

Virgil Tucker: Had a great time perfect place to chill out

Bill Barker (Progressive Tactics): Ive been walking this in every stage of its development and love everything they continue to do to it. Great place for exercise, or to relax. To be steps away from the busy Easter Market, or the ever popular riverfront, and enjoy the serene quiet walkway.

Daniel Kon: Awesome place. I go with the family on a weekly basis.

Mally B: This entire area is absolutely beautiful!! I'm shocked that more people (including myself) don't/didn't know about this place!! The Dequindre Cut is a pathway/trail that you can walk all the way to the RiverFront and enjoy the weather and art that has been left. It has benches to sit and enjoy all things around you, and plenty of room for bikers and walkers :) It's well kept, quiet, and peaceful.

Anonymous Person: This is a bike/walking path that goes to Eastern Market and beyond, ending at Warren Ave. There is lots of Urban Art along the path that adds to the already beautiful landscaping. They are also in the process of building a small stage for what I'm guessing to be for performances of some kind but I'm not sure at this moment(I will update as I learn more). Also for those who are concerned about safety, there are security camera with call boxes all along the path and is well light with LED lighting plus its patrolled by DPD as well as a private security company. Which leads me to my next point.All you ever really seem to hear about in the news is the negative things that happen in Detroit but what goes completely unnoticed is how welcoming the people of Detroit actually are. I brought my wife along with me and we walked the path because she had never been because like with most people from the suburbs feels its an unnecessary risk to go outside of the "safe zones" in Detroit like Eastern Market. After some coercion I finally convinced her to go w/ me for a walk on the path. From the second we got on the path to the time we return we were politely greeted by nearly every black male and female and ignored by nearly every white male and female. The attitude my wife started out with had quickly shifted and the uncomfortable feelings she had where lifted by something so simple as a "good morning or hello" I think people have forgotten that a simple hello or good morning goes a long way to bridging the gaps of ignorance. No, my wife is not racist but by definition she is ignorant because of the brainwashing the media delivers to us in the suburbs daily. What does any of that got to do with reviewing this place, you're wondering? Because a short simple walk can sometimes take us much further then we had ever planned that it would. A simple walk can have the power to lift some of the misconception that have been beaten into our heads if your just willing to let go of all the BS. Being a white male I was embarrassed by how self absorbed the other white people we passed along the way where. This is a great place with great people. Enjoy!!

Alexander Moze: The best crossfit gym in the area, you get concentrate on mobility and strength training. Trainers actually train and want you to improve. They tailored specific exercises to help improve my mobility with my flat feet.

Geoff Gustitus: Nice box in a great location with solid people and a fantastic owner/coach. Will definitely return any time I'm in town.

Thomas McFall: Great drop experience. Awesome facility, caching and community. Highly recommend

Amy Hovan: Dropped in to just do some lifting. After emailing the owner and receiving a positive response, I was very disappointed in the lack of professionalism. I was given no instructions upon walking in, except where I could lift. As I was lifting, the members had no regard for my space. No one spoke a word to me or even acknowledged me until I asked a question. They walked all over my equipment, right in front of me as I was lifting and it took upon themselves to move my stuff. After all that, I was asked to pay a drop in fee along with the purchase of a shirt. $$$$. Very disappointed, knowing how well and friendly we treat drop ins at my home gym.

AbdelAziz Alateeby: It's my first week here but i really love the gym and people in there. Hard working, fun, friendly people, and very kind coaches.THE BEST GYM!

Roberto Torres: Went there for an apartment outing. Got a killer work out, had a great shake and won a sweet swag bag! Will definitely be back for some boot camp classes!

Pranshu Pandey: This is an awesome CrossFit center , fantastic gym , coaches and community. Dave was awesome , very engaged and always inspiring for better results. Also the community is fantastic , I met some pretty cool people. Their weekend WODs are the best. The smoothie bar next door is a great add on. Special mention for Ibis who was the coach in most of my sessions - fantastic coach , helped me a lot with unlearning and learning basics.

D Smith: This is where you get fit! The coaches are awesome and committed. If you want to be about your fitness business, get with these guys!

Jayden Dover: The owner of this gym is a great human being. I am currently on a cross country bike trip with a group of others. We stay in local churches for shelter for the night, which means most of the time hose showers.When one of the members of the groups called the gym asking if we could use the showers instead of having to take a hose shower, the owner did not even question it- did not question how many people, didn’t question for how long- and even offered to host us for the night- on the same day we called. We were blessed to be able to have a hot shower on such short notice.If I was from Detroit, this would be my one stop shop for a gym!!!

Trisha Terns: Awesome facility with coaches and owner that CARE about building community! So awesome! If you're looking for a space to workout judgement-free and to have someone rooting for you in your corner even when you don't want to root for yourself, Coach Dave is the guy! 💪😄✌️

Aaron Varcasio: Great spot to drop into when visiting Detroit! Amazing Gym, they have classes and open gym available. All seriousness they have all the toys for a fitness fanatic like me!

Sheritta Buford: I went to a training session yesterday and it was amazing. David my instructor explained everything we were doing which pushed me to do the workouts because i knew what i was working on and why. It was like a real class and we worked out instead of reading and writing. I not only felt better within my body i felt more aware when i was working out. The people there were all nice and helpful and the facility is clean and welcoming. I really enjoyed my training! Thanks David and Jen!

Prajna Acharya: The best gym in the D, come see for yourself.Ask for Lindsay, she is the best !

Smitha Shenoy: Love Lindsay and her energy 3 Good place to get your heart pumping and fill in some confidence.

Aron Parker: Dropped in from Florida. Got a great workout in!

Jeff Sorensen: Excellent CrossFit Box.... I dropped in while in downtown Detroit for business. The Coach (and owner) was one of the best I've experienced. The facility is spacious and very, very well equipped. I wish I could make this my home box. And the WOD was Elizabeth, so our class of 10 slogged through as a team. Definitely a place where newcomers and new-to-Crossfit folks are very welcomed. A strong 5⭐.

Meagan López: Incredibly welcoming athletes and coaches. It was a pleasure dropping in here!

Chris (Think Differently): Beautiful welcoming place! Be sure to try out Detroit Juice Bar that's right next door if you want the best tasteful Pre & Post Workout drinks

Elizabeth Henderson Branch: Beautiful gym!

The boss: Great place
