Chestnut Loop trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Chestnut Loop trail is a shorter option for hiking in the Arcadia Dunes area, just east of the 22 Highway. This area is heavily wooded and is open to mountain bikers and hikers. Since the loop is short, it is considered a good family hike. The land is managed by the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy.
