Thornapple Woodpecker Festival

The paved Paul Henry – Thornapple Trail follows the Thornapple River and has been called the most beautiful railtrail in Michigan. The area has an established population of the rare Red-headed Woodpecker, as well as the other six eastern US woodpecker species. The fifth annual Thornapple Woodpecker Festival features guided walks and golf cart tours of the woodpecker nesting area along the river and will be headquartered at the Middleville Village Hall (100 E. Main Street). Canoe and kayak rental will also be available.More information on the event can be found at woodpeckerfest.webs.com or follow on Facebook
