My family’s latest day trip took us to Grand Ledge, where we had an EPIC time! This town, just west of Lansing is appropriately named as there are ‘ledges’ of ancient sedimentary rocks visible along the Grand River.

And that people can actually rock climb in one of these parks! If you’re looking for a unique and inspiring day trip to take in the lower peninsula, read on!
