If you love to walk but are tired of hearing your kids, spouse, or partner whine about their legs hurting, or proclaiming:

“How long is this thing?”
“Can we go home now”
“Why did we come here”
“I’m hungry – let's leave”
“Too many bugs – let's go home”
"I'm bored"

.....then this is the trail for you.

It’s the shortest river trail in America, and it’s right here in Michigan. Hell, to be exact. Start your lazy journey at the ice cream/souvenir shop and wind up at the Hell dam...just a few feet away, less than a five-minute walk.

Yeah, there are other things to do in Hell. The Creamatory has yummy delights, play miniature golf, have a meal at The Smoke Doctor, get a selfie at one of many weird displays, buy an inch of land in Hell, grab some souvenirs.....stuff to keep the whiners in your family quiet while you take that five minute stroll down America’s Shortest River Walk.

Take a quick look at some images in the gallery below...
