SUTTONS BAY, MI – Grand Traverse Bike Tours is enhancing its popular Vine to Wine Snowshoe Tours by adding two new winery visits, perfect for those seeking an outdoor adventure this winter. These guided tours combine a moderate snowshoeing experience with stops at renowned Northern Michigan wineries, offering a unique way to enjoy the scenic winter landscape.

Nick Wierzba, owner of Grand Traverse Bike Tours, emphasized the magical transformation of the area under snow, calling it "like walking on clouds." The tours will guide participants through private vineyards and gently snow-covered trails, allowing for an immersive nature experience.

The tours are scheduled for Saturday afternoons and will run through February from noon to 4 p.m. Each ticket is priced at $79 and includes snowshoe rental, poles, and a catered hot lunch.

Attendees will visit BluStone Vineyards and 45 North Winery—both highly regarded for their exceptional wines and stunning views of the Up North landscape. The adventure involves approximately 30-40 minutes of snowshoeing between vineyards, where guests can pause to appreciate the breathtaking vistas of Leelanau County.

Tour highlights include:

  • BluStone Vineyard & Winery: Guests can savor a variety of estate-grown wines in their modern tasting room, featuring indoor and outdoor fire pits.

  • 45 North Winery: Known for its cozy ambiance, visitors can enjoy handcrafted wines and a fabulous lunch by the fire.

This guided tour is strictly for adults 21 and older, with ID verification required at the wineries. Participants are advised to wear comfortable winter clothing and be prepared for the elements, as the adventure will encompass 2-2.5 hours of outdoor activity.
