Chippewa Hills Pathway is located approximately 11 miles west of Ossineke on Nicholson Hill Road. It is one of the best groomed cross-country ski trails open to mountain biking in northeastern Michigan, following a 6.6 mile roller-coaster route through cedar swamp and dense trees. For the most part it is high and dry and mostly singletrack. The path, like most other Michigan cross-country pathways, is amply marked and relatively hazard-free, except for a few sandy patches.
