The .7-mile (one way), paved trail starts in the parking lot and heads along the west side of the park’s large dune. After .7 miles, the trail hits the sand dune area and the trail is no longer paved (expect a dune climb). This part of the trail is a loop that takes visitors to the Lake Michigan shoreline. There is an additional flat trail that extends from the loop to Wishart Road (a private drive). Ferns, oaks, sassafras and a variety of species can be found along the trail.
