Visitors to Michigan's Upper Peninsula find themselves amidst some of the largest
freshwater lakes in the world—Lake
Superior, Lake
Michigan and Lake
Huron—which draw a continuous 1,700-mile shoreline around the region. Rife
with waterfalls, several state parks, miles of beaches and over 4,000 inland
lakes, Michigan's Upper Peninsula plays host to a wealth of outdoor pursuits.
Whether hitting the slopes at Gladstone
Ski Hill, fishing the great lakes, exploring the Soo
Locks or relaxing on the beach at Brimley
State Park, this area of Michigan
is ripe with adventure. In addition to recreation, a rich heritage characterized
by American Indian settlement, a cultural mosaic of immigrants and a history
of mining, logging and fishing is waiting to be discovered at the Upper Peninsula's
many museums, including the Valley
Camp Museum and Tower
of History in Sault
Ste. Marie, Marquette
Maritime Museum in Marquette
and the Great
Lakes Shipwreck Museum in Paradise.
