Trestle Falls — Local services in Negaunee Township

Difficult to navigate and to get to. Path consists of a dirt road that turns into a two track which turns into a train track that you follow down to the trestle. Tree branches on the two track scratched my car up pretty good.

If you dig a little you can find the exact coordinates on where to park your car to access the train track. Be advised the track is private property, and there's no trespassing signs.

The iron balls are all over the incline which makes finding footing difficult. I've hiked across the country and would consider this trek moderate to advanced. I slipped once and even slid down the hill of iron. The balls get lodged under your feet, so make sure you have closed toe shoes you don't care about.

I took a photo from the side and saw the jist of the falls.

Now that I've seen these falls I don't think I'd come back again. The instructions to find the area was a guessing game. You will leave incredibly dirty and you're shooting your shot tetering on private property. But was it pretty to look...

Google lead us to a private neighborhood, so we backtracked to find another way to it and dead ended at a road. Tried a third time, and dead ended into railroad property with no trespassing signs. We walked down a little ways on a side path, but it’s a decent walk from where you can park. We...

My husband and I were really disappointed with Google maps bc it led us into a subdivision so we weren't able to...
