Glacial Hills Pathway and Natural Area

Preserved by the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy, the extreme ecological diversity found at the Glacial Hills Pathway and Natural Area speaks to its statewide significance. The property contains 12 distinct habitat types, including two hardwood forest types, three wetland habitats, and the shrub thicket and wet mesic forest types that support more than 20 species of trees, over 100 species of flowers, and over 100 species of birds, including great-horned owls, eagles and the threatened red-shouldered hawk.

This trail is located just west of Bellaire.
