Noquemenon Trail Network

About Noquemenon Trail Network

Founded in 2001, Noquemanon Trail Network's (NTN’s) mission is to secure, develop, maintain and promote the use of a non-motorized trail network throughout the Central Upper Peninsula of Michigan. NTN relies on the support of the community and generous land owners to keep trails open and available to the public. NTN works with over 45 landowners, both public and private, for daily trail access and over 90 landowners for events. NTN maintains an agreement with each landowner and carries liability insurance to protect each landowner above protections provided by Michigan Act 451. Through a variety of agreements, easements, and ownership, NTN is working towards protecting and growing trail access for the future.

As of 2022 there are 8 trail systems maintained by NTN from Munising to Big Bay including:

over 80 miles of single track trail
35 miles of groomed winter single track
over 125 km of nordic ski trails
2 pump tracks
Forestville Trailhead with winter chalet/facilities building and 20 site campground
South Trails Trailhead with pavilion
Funds for our work come from membership, donations, sponsorships, grants, fundraising events, and occasional contracted trail builds. NTN does not receive any direct local government funding for development or maintenance but a number of municipalities provide land access.
