There's a lot of walking involved so please come prepared with walking shoes and water on a hot day. There are consessions on site but limited hours. Then head back on route to find the Pontiac Auto Museum with artifacts and classics from Pontiac Motors. Then grab lunch at a legacy STOP for a cold brew and a good burger at Ziggy's Bar.

Zip line through history and learn more about the area. Give yourself ample time at each STOP to enjoy all each have to offer. Perfect day trip for family fun!
