Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore in the lower peninsula of Michigan runs for miles along the shoreline of Lake Michigan and also encompasses North Manitou Island and South Manitou Island. Many hiking trails, including Sleeping Bear Point Trailhead and Empire Bluff Trail which leads to a lake overlook, are also found at Sleeping Bear Dunes and offer beautiful views of Lake Michigan, the dunes and the surrounding natural area.
