Hiking

Take a trip along The Highlands North Peak Trail- from the top of Heather Express it's a 1.5-mile round-trip easy trek to one of our favorite viewpoints overlooking the valley. On a clear sunny day, you can even spot the Mackinac Bridge. Enjoy the beautiful surroundings of northern Michigan and explore lush timberland and rolling hills. You're sure to encounter some friends along the way, from wild turkeys to deer — and even a fellow hiker or two. Late-day hikers may even thrill to the howl of a coyote, welcoming the moon back as night falls and the sun sinks below the horizon.
