Lake Michigan College is touting some improvements to its trail system at the Benton Township campus. Speaking in a promotional video from LMC posted to Facebook this week, biology instructor Dr. Jessica Beachy said the public is welcome to tour the nature area.
“At the entrance to the trail, you’re going to find a map of our trails,” Beachy said. “There’s also a list of rules to follow. Most importantly, we’re open dawn to dusk, year round. No dogs and no bicycles allowed on the trail.”
LMC wrapped up a restoration project on the trails this fall after a few years of storms and insect infestations that took down trees. The LMC Nature Trail is a 1.8-mile path carved through 70 acres along the water and woods behind the Benton Township campus. As part of the renovation work this year, they fixed up the boardwalks and took out large fallen trees.
