I visited this park in October, during fall foliage. I would definitely recommend coming here at that time. The colors on the trees are so beautiful. It’s hard to believe that it is Michigan.

Summit view tower is also a must go.…

Went hiking here with a friend. Great views on the escarpment trail and lake of the clouds lookout. Lake Superior trail was nice too. Book lodging well in advance, cabins book up months in advance. There is a fee to enter the park. North Country passes through here as well. Worth a visit!…
