Road Guide
- Best Season
- May through October. The canopy is best in summer and in early to mid October when the leaves turn.
- Fuel
- Fuel is in Harbor Springs and Petoskey. There is little to none north of Harbor Springs, so fill up before you start.
- Watch For
- The lane is very narrow with no shoulder, and oncoming cars often drift over the middle. Expect bicycles, slow sightseers and wet leaves in shade.
Weather Along the Route

M-119 runs north from Harbor Springs along the bluffs above Lake Michigan to Cross Village, under a canopy of hardwoods that gives the Tunnel of Trees its name. The road is narrow with no center line for much of the way and a long series of tight curves. It passes the small settlement of Good Hart and is one of the most photographed drives in Michigan.
