Dry Hill Trail - Arcadia Dunes
What's new:
Updated Map and trail mileage
Description:
The bulk of the Arcadia Dunes-C.S. Mott Preserve trail system is Dry Hill Trail, a glacial moraine ridge that runs inland several miles Lake Michigan. South of the moraine are steep-forested back dunes and together they give the preserve a rugged interior, much to the delight of the mountain bikers who laid out the trail. The loop is classic single track, a flowing trail rated “intermediate” with quick rolling hills, numerous long uphill sections and naturally banked turns. The main loop measures 10.7 miles while Chestnut Trail is a cross-over spur that reduces the ride to 2 miles. If riding in a clockwise direction, the first half from the St. Pierre Road trailhead is often tight and technical in the woods while the second half is more flowing, including a 1.6-mile long downhill run after the trail tops off above 1,000 feet. Dry Hill winds through a half-dozen meadows and a hardwood forest of predominately sugar maple and American beech, making it a stunning ride in the fall.
