This Northern Michigan hike is always a must on a visit to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore: Empire Bluff Trail. The view is breathtaking, and the 1.5-mile roundtrip hike is perfect for families. After you’ve explored the trail, and worked up an appetite, head into Empire and grab a table at Joe’s Friendly Tavern.

See a peek of the view in this video courtesy of Sleeping Bear Dunes Visitors Bureau, and then plan your trip to see it in person.
