FS 8783

FS 8783 is a classic Michigan two-track trail within the Manistee National Forest. Located right off River Road from the north or FS 8580 from the south, this trail is easily accessible. This trail surface consists of a dirt and sand combination. This trail is a pretty open trail that follows the power lines out to the main road. Like most Michigan off-road trails, conditions are dependent on the weather. Recent rainfall can cause unfavorable conditions on the trail, including downed trees, mud holes, and washouts. The trail finishes at the Manistee River Viewpoint, where you can either turn around and head back down the trail or continue on your adventure down the road to the next trail. There aren't any notable obstacles along this trail, but it is still a fun one to check out! This is not a difficult trail, but it contains a lot of fun and gives access to local hiking, hunting, and other recreation.
