Michigan’s Coastal Program sheds light on Sunrise Coast winter adventures
The 200 mile Heritage Route 23 winds along Michigan’s Sunrise Coast, featuring breathtaking Great Lakes views and charming beachside communities. Tucked along the route are myriad opportunities to experience the wonders of Michigan’s outdoors – rushing waterfalls, pebble-strewn beaches, and hiking trails that weave under the canopies of old growth forest. The route’s summer offerings are popular, but until recently, the unique winter coastal experience awaiting on Heritage Route 23 remained relatively untapped.
