  • Michigan Waterways Festival

  • Up North, the way you remember it!  Take a stroll back to the days when the whole family would head up north for a summer getaway.  Dip your feet in the cool, clear waters of the Straits of Mackinaw.  Feed your adventurous spirit with a kayak tour of shipwrecks in Duncan Bay, or pack a picnic and sit on the banks of the Cheboygan River and watch the Open Water Challenge Great Lakes Downwind Championship kayak, SUP and paddle board racers cross the finish line in beautiful downtown Cheboygan, the Gateway to the Inland Waterway. 

    The Michigan Waterways Festival celebrates our pristine lakes, rivers and streams, from Lake Huron to Burt Lake and all the connecting waterways between!  Enjoy family friendly activities ranging from campfire ghost stories told along the Cheboygan River, to live entertainment in the heart of downtown Cheboygan at Festival Square.  Take a tour of the pride of Cheboygan, the USCG Cutter Mackinaw or try your hand at Sidewalk Chalk Art in Washington Park.  Come to Cheboygan for the Michigan Waterways Festival, and let us remind you how a laid back up north summer vacation feels!

    Guided Bicycle Trail Ride

     

    Ride the North Central State Trail to the Barbara 

    Hoffius Preserve and Back

     

     

    Hoffius Preserve Bicycle Ride Tour

    By Cheboygan Trails Council

     

    Beginning at  8;30 am at Festival Square Jim Conboy  will lead a bike ride north on the North Central State Trail  to and back from the Hoffius Preserve just off US 23. The total round trip  distance is 15 1/2 miles. A volunteer will sweep to make sure no one is left behind. Once at the Preserve bikes will be left at the entrance,  with a volunteer,  and riders will  walk about 1/2 mile down  to the shore of Lake Huron where the beauty of the Lake can be appreciated. Total time 2 3/4 to 3hours. 

     

    While the trail is flat, riders should be prepared to ride the distance comfortably.  It is not a ride for young children. Since the path to the shore of Lake Huron includes steps and uneven ground, comfortable walking shoes are advised. Helmets are encouraged.

     

    It would be appreciated if you would sign up for the ride though that is not required to participate.
