Mackinac Island Cross Country Skiing
The Mackinac Island Ski club grooms trails on the east and north side of the Island in Mackinac Island State Park.
The cross country ski trails wind through the pristine woods of Mackinac Island State Park and allow the winter visitor to see all of the natural and historical landmarks of the island.
You can follow the ski trails to the interior of the island and take in the vistas from the highest point on the island at Fort Holmes. Or ski through the woods to Arch Rock and enjoy the view of Lake Huron from the bluffs on the eastern side of the island.

Enjoy the fall!

風起之時,落葉也能成為舞動的畫
When the wind rises, even fallen leaves can become a dance of art.

The perimeter of the island is 8.2 miles and for the most part pretty flat - it was helpful to have a bicycle with gears for these two retired folk that hadn’t been on two wheels in years.
So many scenic stops along the shore. The “Is it you?” tree from Somewhere in Time is just past the edge of Main Street along the route.
Seeing Arch Rock from below was quite interesting.

Mackinac Island, Michigan and kayaking in the upper peninsula 💛😊
Between the horse drawn carriages, bike rides along the lake, no cars, and the 1800s charm, it felt like taking a step back in time.

A private carriage ride is pricey but when shared with another couple it is semi-affordable. In planning this trip I followed a couple of Mackinac Island dedicated Facebook pages getting suggestions on everything from parking tips to where to have our anniversary dinner. The day we arrived on the island Donna posted about second guessing her carriage booking for the next day, I reached out to her and asked if she would like to share the ride and that is exactly what we did. A new friendship formed.
Our driver Blake was very knowledgeable about the island, gave us history of how the buildings on the island had just recently gotten numbered addresses versus being known by a name, pointed out points of interest to come back to. We made a stop at the Carriage Museum, there was a carriage that has carried five US Presidents who have visited the Island and also sleighs to be used in the winter snow.
We saw many beautiful homes along our ride and some lovely vistas in scenic stops.
