Guided Tours

The Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive is a 7 mile scenic route that takes you to spectacular overlooks of Lake Michigan, Glen Lake, and the Sleeping Bear Dunes.  Two picnic areas are also on the route.  A brochure is available at the entrance to the drive for a self-guided tour which has 12 designated stops that are described in the brochure and on interpretive signs at the stops.

Bus Tours

If you have a group on a bus tour, arrangements can be made to have a Park Ranger give a commentary during your bus tour of the park.  Contact Park Headquarters 231-326-5134.

Snowshoe Tours

During the winter season (January through March), a snowshoe hike is guided by a ranger each Saturday.  This is a very popular event each week, so be sure to call Park Headquarters 231-326-5134 to make reservations.

Did You Know?
The Great Lakes was the highway of the past. It was the main way that cargo and passengers moved through this area until roads were established. A variety of boats used on the Great Lakes are on display at the Cannery in Glen Haven within Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
