Mackinaw City

Mackinac Island has been called the Queen of the Great Lakes for centuries. Pedal a scenic, self-guided cycling tour, largely flat loop around the car-free island – bike rentals cost around $50 per day, or choose an hourly rate.

This tour isn’t all history. You’ll see big geologic wonders like Arch Rock, and little ones, too, like the Devil’s Kitchen cave – plus the Islands dirty little water secret.
