Mariners Trail and Memorial Drive Waysides

The Mariners Trail traverses 5.5 miles of scenic Lake Michigan coast line from Two Rivers to Manitowoc. This paved all-purpose trail is open to bicycling, running, walking, e-bikes, and skating. 

There are five parking waysides located along the trail. The most prominent of these is the Spirit of the Rivers Wayside with a bronze sculpture celebrating the indigenous inhabitants of the area. Learn more at https://spiritoftherivers.org/.

Trail users can extend their trip by connecting to the Rawley Point Trail for an additional 5.2 miles. Trail signage guides trail users through downtown Two Rivers, across the 17th St. bridge, through Neshotah Park, and onto the crushed limestone Rawley Point Trail.
