Sleeping Bear Dunes Overnight Camping Trip

Saturday, October 4, 2025
All day
Off Campus
Students

Join Outdoor Adventures on an exploration of the iconic Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore via the Dunes Trail. This will be a 3.5 mile round trip excursion and is described by the National Park Service as "steep", "rugged", & "strenuous" but the views will be worth the effort.

No experience necessary, camping equipment can be provided upon request during registration.

A more detailed description can be found on their website: https://www.nps.gov/places/dunes-trail-to-lake-michigan.htm

We will also be camping just outside the area at D.H. Day Campground.

We will not be supplying rental vehicles for transportation to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. If you have a car and would be willing to drive others please let us know!

Cost: $35

Registration Deadline: Friday, October 3rd at 4pm.

Mandatory Pre-trip Meeting: Friday, October 3, 5pm at the Ravines Center (OA HQ)
