Grand Traverse Tour

Grand Traverse Tour
See the best of Michigan!

The Traverse City area offers some of the best cycling anywhere, and we’ll take our time to enjoy it. This tour is one of our Comfort Tours, located in areas with great sights and support along the trail. Enjoy a day out & back on the Old Mission Peninsula complete with optional winery tour(s), and then four days biking in Leelanau County. You’ll even time for sightseeing in the Sleeping Bear Dunes. We’ll take our time and travel shorter distances to enjoy it all, with no extra charge for the hills.

This tour is designed for your comfort

We’ll plan for two nights in Traverse City, and then three nights in Leelanau County. You’ll ride about 30 miles each day (inn-to-inn), with options for many more miles if needed. Read that again: we have about 120 miles minimum, inn-to-inn, plus Live Large routes to add up to another 100 miles. It’s a great combination of comfort and opportunity!

Our Traverse City lodging includes two nights at the Quality Inn on the east bay. This hotel is right on the Traverse Area Recreation Trail, with great connections to the area. Tuesday we relocate to Leland, and the Whaleback Inn. You can enjoy a dinner of fresh whitefish right from the dock in Fishtown. Our last two nights are in Glen Arbor. This town is full of great optional activities for you including a float trip on the Crystal river, a chance to make the famous dune climb on foot, and even bicycle through the challenging hills at Pierce Stocking.
