With Lake Michigan being the only one of the lakes located entirely within the United States it makes for an inviting bicycle tour. Your ride around the lake will include panoramic bluff views across the expansive clear waters of the lake, endless numbers of clean pristine sandy beaches with gentle lapping waves to swim in, quaint small villages that have been catering to the needs of travelers for over a hundred years, and the best part of all, it is a loop tour. No shuttles required! And if you don't have time for the 1,200 plus mile tour around the entire lake, you have the option to hop one of two ferries across the lake to cut your tour in half, or ever thirds. It is a tour that has it all, and this guidebook routes you on separated bike paths and bike friendly roads that lead you from one adventure to the next. So grab your bike and begin your own Lake Michigan Trail Adventure!

All trails can be used for hiking, most can be used for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, and several for mountain biking. The Shore-to-Shore Trail is also used by horse riders. The Betsie Valley Trail is a former railroad with a long paved section that can also be used by road bikes and roller blades. In addition to all the wonderful well-known water-based recreational opportunities in Benzie County, there are several lovely trails to explore, all via your choice of human-powered transportation. This guide is for anyone interested in experiencing even more of the outdoor splendor the county has to offer. The trails explore along streams, rivers, and inland lakes, as well as Lake Michigan's beaches, bluffs, and great views. They travel through woods, meadows, hills, valleys, wetlands, and dunes. Some pass through former farms and orchards or follow old railroads or logging trails. Four of the trails are in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. All encompass myriad plant and animal life and have something unique to offer. Included in the guide is a road map of Benzie County showing trailhead locations. Many details are provided for each trail, including: URLs to each trail's Web site and trail map; trail lengths, hiking times, and difficulty; GPS coordinates, detailed directions, and Google Maps URLs for each trailhead; as well as helpful tips and comments.
