Paved trails, sidewalks, and a bike route form the Cascade Pedestrian Pathways, a well-used trail system in Cascade Township.
Several parks are accessible from the Pathways, including Cascade Township Recreation Park, Leslie Tassell Park, Thornapple Valley Lions Park, and Ada Township Park.
The trail system also passes near some historic locations: Cascade Township Hall (1898), Cascade Christian Church (1864) and Ada Covered Bridge (1867).
