More Information
Due to current footpath bridge conditions along the Au Sable River Trail, a section of trail is closed indefinitely. A series of five structures will need to be engineered and funded. The construction timeline is unknown at this time. The remainder of the trail remains open, although an out-and-back route will be necessary (counterclockwise direction recommended).
