This year's festival includes Guided Trail Hike/Bike Tours from Noon to 4 p.m., leaving from the Lodge at the top of each hour. Explore the hike/bike trails from the Lodge to Copper Harbor. The Tours are courtesy of the Copper Harbor Trail Club. A limited number of mountain bikes will be made available by Keweenaw Adventure Company.
Parking is limited parking at the Lodge so consider parking in Copper Harbor and taking one of the shuttle buses. The Red Jacket Trolley and the Copper Harbor School bus will provide transportation from various bus stops in Copper Harbor (including Fort Wilkins) to the Lodge all day -- for no charge, but donations are certainly appreciated!
