Trestle Park centers on an old railroad trestle spanning the Au Sable/nearby water channels and wooded trails — great for framed compositions of iron structure against reflections, seasonal foliage and river lines. Best at golden hour or blue hour for warm light and long exposures. Easy roadside parking at 2738 S Gladwin Rd; short walks to viewpoints. No fee; dress for ticks/wet trails in spring. Autumn and high-water spring runoff create the most dramatic scenes.
