Beautiful coastline that makes a wonderful backpacking experience. I enjoyed my time backpacking in August seeing mushrooms, fog in the mornings, blueberries you could forage and nice sunsets. I do want to advise others that it rained and was in the low 40s some nights in early August, so prepare warmly for those chilly hours.

This is a very pretty area, (because its in the UP), it's well worth the hike! The one picture Is the northern lights, they were out one of the nights we were there, they were so amazing!!! Great place the view them if there out. the camp sites were nice with nice fire pits, and pit toilets and each campground. the trail gets used a lot, so it is very clear and established.

Very unique and interesting geographical feature! My only complaint is that the weather forecast wasn’t accurate, and the day was a bit more cloudy than we hoped for. The colors of the rocks and water would’ve been much more vibrant if the sun came out! This was still definitely worth seeing in person, regardless of clouds. We enjoyed a boat tour that covered 11 miles of the cliff, and the variations in colors and formations was unbelievable. These photos do not accurately capture the vibrancy of the colors on the rocks or the brilliance of the blue water. This is definitely one of the coolest places in the US!

This place was absolutely amazing! It was like the scene out of a movie. The water is the bluest I've ever seen. The weather was perfect for this time of year. We did about 10 miles total, but we plan to go back and do the whole 40-mile hike. Huge cliff views, beach area, and picture worthy shots. Don't miss out!

This place is what dreams are made of. There are miles and miles of breath taking views. Be prepared these trails are remote. You will not have cell service most the time. Bring plenty of water if planning a significant hike. Watch your step you're one stumble from falling off a cliff lol so be careful do not recommend the long trail for small children. The park is a great combination of modern and rustic. Put this place on your bucket list!

The cruise was great! It got gusty and wet out on the water but it was still lots of fun. Beautiful rock formations best seen from the water.

The town of Munising Michigan, quaint enjoyable and I love the freshwater smell coming off the bay. The town has a couple different restaurants which are decent as well as some dispensaries for those who like to partake in cannabis. One of the things I enjoyed the most was the picture Rock boat tours, the tour was about two and a half hours and the crew was fantastic. There were plenty of opportunities to get photos of picture rocks.

Kayaking was a fantastic way to see the Pictured Rocks. Hiking is fun also but kayaking gives you an up close view and touch. It is better than a cruise boat. You control your time at the spots for pictures.
