Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park

Upper Michigan's Porcupine Mountain State Park has 63,000 acres of majestic forests, cascading waterfalls, and beautiful sand beaches along Lake Superior. The remote interior of the park with its towering pines and hemlocks gives a sense of solitude which is uncommon to our lives today. There are 14 trails to choose from covering about 75 miles.

* Groups of more than ten will have to split into two parties, hiking and camping separately.
