The Sands Parks and Recreation located in

Sands Township is an epicenter of numerous recreational activities for both Sands and Marquette County residents as well as tourists.   Sands is home to the Blueberry Ridge Ski Trail system, which is one of the best public cross country ski trails in the state. It has been the birthing grounds of many beginner Nordic skiers and has even been the training grounds for Olympians.   Sands Township has also been popular with the increasing road cycling community as well as mountain bikers. Horseback riding, snowshoeing, dog sledding, hiking, fishing, hunting, snow mobiling, and ATV riding are some of the other activities that attract recreationalists to Sands Township.   The large tracts of blueberry bushes in the township also host a plethora of blueberry pickers in mid-summer. The Marquette County fairgrounds is also located in Sands Township, just south of the new township park.   The new Sands Township park will be centrally located for many of these recreational activities and will provide a great location to meet and spend time with friends and family.   Click logo above to learn more about the Sands Township Parks & Recreation
