Michigan's Lower Peninsula offers extremely diverse terrain, from
beaches that are home to shipwrecks and lighthouses, streams populated
with trout, and wildflower and orchid fields to spaces with unusual
geological formations, sand dunes, and steep climbs, and beech forests
perfect for birding.
Each chapter begins with an overview of each hike--the type of hike,
total distance, time, difficulty, highlights, maps, and trailhead GPS
coordinates. Readers will learn the best way to access the trail, tips
and suggestions, and key features to look out for along the way (scenic
views, drinking water, rest stops, waterfalls, and old growth trees).
Whether readers are setting out in the Sleeping Bear region to observe
shipwrecks, open dunes, and beach walking on the South Manitou Island
trail, 50 Hikes in Michigan (with 10 bonus hikes!) is the perfect
companion.
