Huron River Drive between Dexter and Ann Arbor: A drive or bike ride from Ann Arbor to the historic Dexter Cider Mill along Huron River drive is an annual tradition for many living in Ann Arbor. Although it may not be as long as the famous "Tunnel of Trees" in Northern Michigan you'll still get lost in the season as you wind along the 7 1/2-mile stretch of road.
