About this event

This is perhaps the prettiest section of the Big Manistee, just south of Kingsley, with majestic scenery on both sides. We will travel alongside the North Country National Scenic Trail. There is little development along the banks and the views of the hills alongside the river are truly spectacular. Trip time s/b about 4 hours.  44.48547,-85.40484.  Follow directions at the rest stop to the launch.
