Musketawa Trail
The
Musketawa Trail is a 26 mile paved (12 foot wide) all-season linear park constructed
on an abandoned rail line between Marne and Muskegon. Ottawa County Parks
manages the 10 mile section of trail from Marne to the Muskegon County line
between April 1 and November 30. Trail uses include hiking, biking, roller-blading,
snowmobiling and horseback riding. The Musketawa Trail was acquired and developed
by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources with assistance from the Friends
of the Musketawa Trail.
