Harlow Lake Area
The Harlow Lake Area in Marquette, MI, is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering some of the region's most challenging and technical trails. Renowned for their difficulty, the Harlow Lake Area (HLA) mountain 骑自行车 trails feature rock outcrops with punchy climbs and rocky, steep declines. For those ready to tackle the challenge, the effort pays off with breathtaking vista views. It’s an ideal spot for avid adventurers, but remember to ride at your own pace—take your time and choose your lines carefully. Be aware that cell service can be spotty, so plan accordingly.
One of the highlights of the area is the Jedi Trail. This three-mile trail, with an elevation gain of 271 ft. and a total descent of 288 ft., offers stunning views of the surrounding area and Lake Superior from the Top of the World. The trail features a fun and fast, rooty descent through the forest, making it a must-ride for thrill-seekers.
Beyond 骑自行车, Harlow Lake is also perfect for a leisurely hike. The hiking trails meander through dense forests and along rocky outcrops. For water lovers, paddling on Harlow Lake provides a serene way to soak in the area's natural beauty. The calm waters are perfect for kayaking and canoeing, allowing for peaceful exploration with scenic views of the surrounding wilderness and Hogback Mountain.
