Take a Hike, History
By Jillian Manning | April 23, 2022
It’s (finally) starting to feel like spring around here, and just in time. On Friday, May 6, the Harbor Springs Area Historical Society is hosting a “Natural Harbor Springs” walking tour starting at 1pm. Doug Fuller, former director of stewardship at the Little Traverse Conservancy, will take hikers on a guided tour through the natural history of Harbor Springs to learn about the bluffs, sand spits, and water features that make this part of the North such a gorgeous place to live and visit. Along the way, you’ll travel through the trails of the Naas, Mauger, Raunecker, and Leslie Nature Preserve. Keep in mind, this 3-mile hike takes a little less than three hours to complete, so you’ll want to wear your comfy shoes and pack snacks and water for the walk. Visit harborspringshistory.org/events or call (231) 526-9771 to register ($10 per person). Slots are filling up fast, so if you can’t make the May 6 date, they’ll be back on the trails May 20 for a second tour!
