“A slightly more technical intermediate trail than the blue trail with great scenery.”

— Mike Ahnemann
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

The Yellow Trail, approximately 6 miles in length, is a more technical and hilly intermediate trail with scenic stretches along the Huron River and great vistas. The end of the Blue Trail shares a small section of two track with Yellow, and so it's easy to link both Blue and Yellow into a 14+ mile loop.
