There are some fairly easy trails that don't have steep inclines. Since there are so many trees you won't see much else when driving. Another good option would be to drive to the Presque Isle River Area Parking Lot and then walk to the falls or go to the Escarpmant parking and up a short but somewhat steep path to the overlook. It's not too steep and worth the walk.
How feasible would it be to leave our bicycles at one end of the Escarpment Trail, park at the other end, hike the trail and then bicycle back to our car? The 4.3 miles is not a problem, doubling it might be for me.
A:
I meant to say, bicycle back along the road M-107.
