Climbing trail from Summer School to the Summit of East Bluff. The trail is very gentle throughout with the exception of one punchy climb and berm near the very bottom. Grades are minimal to make for a relaxing ride to the top of the Bluff. Although the trail is longer than the road, it is much more enjoyable and shaded in a beautiful forest that transitions from cedars and softwoods near the bottom to predominantly oaks and other hardwoods at the top.

Access Info

The trail begins at the hub near the top of Summer School and the Keweenaw Point Trail. It ends at the top of the Bluff near the shuttle turnaround area adjacent to the primary downhill trails.

      East Bluff is now open, with the exception of Bermasauraus. Expect early season conditions, especially on the Bluff.
