In 1991, Cook Information Center opened the Nipissing Dune Trails, a three-mile system of marked paths, boardwalks and wooden stairs cut through Cook property. The Nipissing Trail stretches along the Grand Marais Embayment, a part of a series of sand dunes bordering Lake Michigan which represent the largest assembly of freshwater dune formations in the world. These trails, meandering along some of the more diverse landscape in the Great Lakes region, offer hikers the opportunity to explore hardwood and pine forests, climb towering dunes, catch breathtaking views of Lake Michigan, walk through blooming meadows and catch sight of wildlife. Maps help hikers learn about the area's rich geological history. The Center also provides birdwatchers with binoculars and field guides to make identification fun and easy.
