You can hike about 100 miles of designated trails in the Lakeshore. There are thirteen trails on the mainland for hiking, and most of them are maintained during the winter for cross country skiing, and snowshoeing too. Each trail has a trailhead with a parking area. Hiking trails on the dunes are marked by blue-tipped posts.
Trail maps are available in this section, at the Visitor Center, or at the trailhead. Click for Trail Regulations and Safety Information. A Park Pass is required for all trail use within the Lakeshore. Click for Fee Information. There are also hiking trails on North Manitou Island and South Manitou Island.
