点评:This trail starts at the West Beach parking lot and ends up at West Beach, just via an indirect (and more scenic) route than the regular pathway that leads there.
The entire trail is about a mile and took us 20 minutes. The trail starts out through sand, but quick hits a boardwalk, and the remainder of it is on the boardwalk. There are a fair number of steps up at the beginning, leading to a platform with some informative panels. We then continued on with various up and down stairways, passing some runners who were apparently getting in their hill workouts.
The views of Lake Michigan from the higher points of the trail were quite nice, and then we could see the beach and eventually reached it. That let us end our hike with a little bit of a stroll along the beach itself. You could follow the boardwalk back to your starting point, but we just took the shorter concrete pathway back to our car.
翻译:这条小路从西海滩停车场开始,最终到达西海滩,只是通过一条间接的(风景更优美的)路线,而不是通向那里的常规路径。
整个步道大约一英里,我们花了20分钟。这条小路从沙地开始,但很快就到达了木板路,剩下的部分就在木板路上了。一开始有相当多的步骤,导致平台上有一些信息面板。然后我们继续沿着各种上下楼梯前进,经过一些显然正在进行山地锻炼的跑步者。
从步道的较高处可以看到密歇根湖的景色非常漂亮,然后我们可以看到海滩并最终到达了海滩。这样我们就可以沿着海滩漫步来结束我们的徒步旅行。您可以沿着木板路回到起点,但我们只是走了较短的混凝土路回到我们的车上。
