Exploring the Viewlands
July 22, 2023
A new trail is coming to Harbor Springs. The Little Traverse Conservancy and Top of Michigan Mountain Bike Association (TOMMBA) announced the Offield Family Viewlands, which opened in 2020 on the site of the former Little Traverse Bay Golf Club, will soon have 5 brand-new miles of trail. While the property already has old golf cart paths to explore, an accessible reflection labyrinth, and 4.5 miles of trails (some of which have very steep elevations), the new trail system will be beginner friendly and wind through different areas of the Viewlands. The trail will be open to walkers and mountain bikers and has a planned connection to a section of the North Country Trail at Kipp Road. Construction of the trail, which was designed by Flow Track, could begin as soon as August. The conservancy and TOMMBA are working to close a fundraising gap of $36,000 to begin the project.
