Alpena to Hillman Trail
The Alpena to Hillman Trail is a 24-mile (39 km) recreational rail trail serving a section of the northern quarter of the Lower Peninsula of the U.S. state of Michigan. It uses segments of what was once the eastern spur of the Boyne City Railroad, a 1918 logging railroad that stretched across the northern counties of Michigan's Lower Peninsula from Boyne City, Michigan to Alpena, Michigan.[1]
