Mingle with the locals, enjoy the views, and go for a stroll along Detroit RiverFront. This is one of the most popular hangout spots in the city, and you'll see many people fishing, jogging, and riding bikes next to the water. It's hard to beat this spot's views of Windsor, Ontario, on the Canadian side of the Detroit River. Choose a restaurant for a meal or a drink, or hop onto one of the boat tours if you're up for some sightseeing. The riverfront regularly hosts different events, celebrations, and music festivals. Check the events schedule online if you want to plan your visit accordingly, and join the party at the riverfront.

Detroit RiverFront reviews

The Detroit riverfront is decent but not the best. This is because the Windsor skyline is terrible. Though the paths are nice. Some great spots for photos. Also very easy to get to downtown Detroit

As we were staying downtown, we were able to take full advantage of this walk along the Detroit River. It was very quiet when we stayed, though at some times of the year I'm sure it gets very lively..... more

Got up early for a few sunrises while there on my visit. Great spot to watch the sun come up over Canada to wake up Detroit.

Beautiful scenery of two countries separated by a small free flowing river.

Yes, I'm not a local so I won't be up to speed on the myriad problems that plague the city of Detroit. But I live in Los Angeles, a city that will crumble under the weight of its unsustainable policies in the next two decades, and all you hear about LA is wonderful things. So I think I can say that the Riverfront in Detroit was bomb.

Very peaceful in the early morning hours. Scenery is beautiful. Walk is refreshing.

The riverfront in Detroit is a beautiful place to go for a walk and enjoy the outdoors. Even in August the walkway wasn't that busy so my girlfriend and I were able to enjoy a peaceful walk right along the river. There are a number of places that you can sit down and relax along the way. The scenery is beautiful and the views of Windsor are amazing! Would love to return with a bicycle and further explore the Detroit Riverfront. Definitely recommend visiting if you're looking for something to do in Detroit during your trip.
