Trail Overview

License Plate Required! Silver Creek Trail is a unique Michigan trail, located just around the corner from Baxter Bridge. The route starts on a sand road along some trees. Shortly into the route, the trail turns into a typical two-track. As you continue, you'll be greeted by some towering trees here within the Cadillac Forest Management Unit. There's a lot of lush plant life along this trail to be seen. Like most of Michigan trails, conditions are dependent on the weather. Recent rainfall can cause mud/water holes that can get rutted out quickly. Most of this trail is only wide enough for 1 vehicle, with limited places to pass. At the end of the trail, you'll find a small turnaround space and a small space for dispersed camping. If you plan on dispersed camping, PLEASE TREAD LIGHTLY, and seek more information at the local DNR Office/Ranger Station before camping here. Here you'll also find Silver Creek. Regardless of the conditions, this is a spectacular trail to enjoy!
