Blueberry Ridge Pathway
Blueberry Ridge Pathway
Just 6 miles south of Marquette, Blueberry Ridge Pathway is a premier destination for cross-country skiing in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Its 13.7 miles of trails weave through scenic jack pine forests and blueberry patches, offering seven distinct loops for all skill levels. Enjoy evening outings on a 1.7-mile loop, illuminated nightly from 5 to 10 p.m. during ski season. A cozy warming hut provides a perfect spot to take a break and warm up.
The trail is groomed Dec. 1 to March 31 for cross-country skiing (weather permitting).
Both parking areas are plowed for access to the groomed ski trails in the winter months.
