Let's take a hike: Grand Mere State Park - Dunes/Beach Walk - 3.4 miles
This is a great hike. There are very few people that knows about this awesome place. We will meet at the trail head at 10:00. There is only a couple of dunes to climb. (It is not as bad a Warren Dunes or Saugatuck Dunes.) We will be hike about 3.5 miles. About 1/2 of a mile of the hike will be on the beach.
FYI: (We won't be climbing Mount Bald Top, which is the highest spot in the park.)
This is a state park, will need a recreational pass to enter.
We can head to Watermark Brewery for a bite afterwards. They normally have a food truck there. The Lion's games starts at 4:15 so hopefully it won't be crowded yet.
About
Grand Mere State Park is characterized by magnificent sand dunes, deep blowouts and half a mile of Lake Michigan shoreline, accessible by the park’s two trails. Two inland lakes lie behind the dunes in the undeveloped natural area. The park is popular with hikers and runners.
This is a great hike. I hope you can make it.
