After more than a year spent largely inside because of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelers have a thirst for the outdoors.
They want adventures. They want experiences. They want a chance for discoveries. They are drawn to open spaces where the pace of life slows.
Munising checks every box.
There are amazing encounters with Lake Superior. There are remarkable arrays of red, orange, green and blue displayed in the sandstone cliffs of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The park’s 100 miles of hiking trails and 42 miles of coastline along Superior offer days of action and relaxation. There are waterfalls with access from roadside stops with boardwalks and accessible paths or challenging treks through scenic hardwoods.
Take to the water for a silent paddle, a day at the beach or a tranquil tour that highlights shipwrecks and the natural features of the Upper Peninsula, which has roughly 33 percent of Michigan’s land mass but only 3 percent of its population.
Need some adrenaline coursing through your veins? Hop on a decommissioned Navy Seal jetboat and get the sights and sounds between high-speeds, blasts into sharp turns and 360-degree spins that delight howling riders. Or maybe mountain biking or ATV riding is your thing? There are miles of trails in the Hiawatha National Forest.
If the goal is to decompress with cold drinks and fresh food, Munising’s craft beer, creative cocktails and farm-to-table food hits the spot.
