A picture-perfect representation of the seasons changing, stroll along this bridged pathway and embrace the colorful foliage. This unassuming park looks like a basic facility featuring outhouses, but it actually offers river access for boats, a trail head for the North Country Trail and a meandering boardwalk that ends with views right on the Manistee River.

I took this photo in the Manistee River Roadside Park. The park is clearly marked with signs along the east side of US-131 South of Fife Lake.
Once you arrive to the park, park your car in the parking lot in the southeast corner of the park. Then, head north and find the boardwalk signs to enter onto this trail. Refer to the GPS coordinate in satellite mode for the exact spot where I stood.
