Gogebic Ridge Hiking Trail. Merriweather and Bergland. On M-28 in Merriweather, turn north on Forest Road 250 and drive 1.1 miles to a sign marking the trailhead. Phone: (906) 884-2411. 7.5 linear miles, plus short loop near Weary Lake. This 8-mile linear hiking trail is a great reason to leave the sidewalks and pavement behind. The trail begins by skirting along Weary Lake, and then pauses at a rock ledge overlooking Lake Gogebic. The rock ledge is known locally as Trap Hills and is one of the longest and tallest cliff faces in Michigan. The view from the top is well worth the hike. Parts of this trail closely follow the Lake Gogebic-Iron River Indian Trail that was used more than 100 years ago. It bends and winds through rolling hills of mixed hardwood and conifer trees before intersecting the North Country National Scenic Trail.
