Trail Overview
FS 5903 is a beautiful bidirectional trail within the Manistee National Forest. Located between FS 9771 and East 20 Road, this trail is easily accessible. You'll start out in a pretty open part of the forest with trees lining the trail on a dirt/gravel road. As you continue down the trail, you'll twist and turn as you change to a more lush part of the forest that makes for some pretty incredible views. Be sure to take it all in, and TREAD LIGHTLY so future generations can enjoy these public spaces. Like most of Michigan trails, conditions are dependent on the weather. Recent rainfall can cause unfavorable conditions on the trail, including downed trees, mud holes, and washouts. Come Prepared! You'll pass through a gorgeous section of towering trees, but be given some amazing views. This is not a difficult trail at all, but still contains a lot of fun and beauty. The trail ends at East 20 Road, which either gives you a way out to head home or other trail options to continue along in your journey. As always, again, PLEASE TREAD LIGHTLY and be respectful of our public lands so future generations can have access to these trails!
