Let’s Take a Walk: Three Weekend Hikes
Aug. 30, 2025
School may be back in session, but there’s still plenty of late-summer beauty to explore in the great outdoors. Saturday, Sept. 6, join the Harbor Springs Chapter of the North Country Scenic Trail for a 4-mile hike from the Kipp Road trailhead, beginning at 9am. Per the trail description, expect “high hills and deep valleys through hardwoods, cutover areas, and pine plantings.” Also on Saturday, head to the Krause Road trailhead with the Jordan Valley 45° chapter of the NCT from 10am-1pm for “Wild Things on a Trail,” a family-friendly event to introduce kiddos to the joys of hiking alongside cutouts from Maurice Sendak’s beloved story. And last but not least, join Headlands International Dark Sky Park for a guided full moon hike on Sept. 7 starting at 9pm. Get the details on all of the above at petoskeyarea.com/calendar-events.
