Trail Overview
FS 8167 is a unique and scenic bidirectional trail within the Manistee National Forest. Located directly off either Good Road (FS 8160) or Pomeroy Springs Road, this trail is easily accessible. Starting from the southern end, you'll start out on a dirt road. This trail quickly transitions into a thick section of trees with lush vegetation edging the trail. As you continue down the trail, you'll twist and turn and have many opportunities to see different parts of nature. We did happen to come across a downed tree that we had to move, which is why this trail took us a long time, but if that wasn't there, it would be much quicker. Be sure to take it all in, and TREAD LIGHTLY so future generations can enjoy these public spaces. Also keep your eyes open for wildlife! This trail will surely keep you entertained. Like most of Michigan offroad 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! This is not a difficult trail at all, but it contains a lot of beauty and excitement. This trail also gives access to other great trails nearby. The northern end of the trail finishes at Good Road, so it makes it very convenient to either get out to head home or keep on your journey. Regardless of the conditions of this trail, it's a great route to check out! As always, again, PLEASE TREAD LIGHTLY and be respectful of our public lands so future generations can have access to these trails!
