Port Sanilac Petroglyphs

Head west on the Minden road out of Forestville until you reach Germania Rd.  Go south about 1/2 mile and you will reach the park where these remarkable carvings are located.  These were uncovered by the forest fires in the late 1800's and are the only known petroglyphs in Michigan.

From 10 until 5 during the summer you can view this site.  The park and the nature trail are open year round.  The trail includes two swinging bridges and a White Pine that is 100+ years old.
