Door County's 100 miles of backroad biking have everything from trails through our state parks to country roads through fields and orchards. Biking is a great way to discover the Door. Free maps are available through the Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center. Mountain bikers particularly enjoy the 15-mile Ahnapee Trail that connects Algoma with Sturgeon Bay. Families and couples enjoy biking on the wooded off-road trails at Peninsula State Park (eight miles), Newport State Park (13 miles), Potawatomi State Park (four miles).

Cherry orchards
Door County has a history of cherry growing that dates back to the 1800s. Soil and weather conditions - warm days and cool nights - influenced by Lake Michigan and Green Bay have created an ideal situation for growing these delicious fruits. Today with around 2,000 acres of cherry orchards and another 500 acres of apple orchards, Door County is filled with blossoms in the spring and is richly decorated with the delicious fruits in the late summer and fall.
Montmorency cherries are usually picked from mid July to early/mid August. Early varieties of apple orchards, such as Paulareds, are harvested as early as late August. Golden Delicious are harvested through mid October.
Cherry and apple stands can be found along many of Door County's country roads in season. Picking your own apples and cherries can be a fun and tasty part of your visit to Door County.
