Outstanding Traverse City Biking and Walking Trails
Little Traverse Wheelway-23.7 Miles, Asphalt. Trail activities: Bike, Inline Skating, Fishing, Wheelchair Accessible, Walking, Cross Country Skiing
The Little Traverse Wheelway is north of Traverse City but needs to be mentioned.
Trail end points: Waller Rd. and US 31 (Charlevoix) and Kosequat Park at Park Ln. and E. Lake Road (Harbor Springs).
This is our favorite trail because it's paved, boasts fantastic views and allows for lots of photo worthy stops. You will enjoy views of Lake Michigan and its shoreline. The paved trail rolls for 24 miles from Charlevoix to Petoskey to Harbor Springs as it follows the curve of Little Traverse Bay.
