Old Indian Trail has two loops of about 2.5 miles in length. It is also a popular cross country ski and snowshoe trail. Most of the trail runs through maple-beech forest. There is a short hike through the beach dunes to Lake Michigan near the junction of the two loops.

The trail leads through the beach dunes to Lake Michigan. Note that the drifting sand has almost buried the trail post (blue-tipped post).

The view from the top of the dune looking out to Lake Michigan near where the two loops connect.
