Leelanau Peninsula Day Trip
Traverse City, Michigan
About This Activity
The Leelanau Peninsula, stretching north between Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan, is a patchwork of cherry orchards, vineyards, and charming villages. The 17-mile paved Leelanau Trail connects Traverse City to Suttons Bay, perfect for cycling. Stop at tasting rooms along the way, browse the galleries of artisan-rich Leland, or detour to the Leelanau State Park at the peninsula's tip. A full day lets you combine wine tasting, cycling, and waterfront relaxation.
