Chain of Lakes Region

Chain of Lakes Region

The Upper Chain of Lakes in Antrim County is a long and peaceful opportunity to paddle in a lake setting without fear of whitecaps. The lakes in this section include Beals, Scotts, Sixmile, St. Clair Lake, Ellsworth, Wilson, Ben-way, Hanley, and Intermediate. The route is relatively narrow, yet extends for miles through multiple communities. Plan a section at a time, or power through the route as a marathon.
