The Fred Meijer White Pine Trail State Park passes through the City of Rockford.

The community is famous as the Home of Wolverine World Wide the manufacture of “Hush Puppies” shoes.

There is a factory outlet store adjoining the trail on the north side of the business district.

There are many good places to eat and socialize with friends adjoining or near the trail.
