This area is rich with natural beauty starting with the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park that overlooks Lake Superior. This state park is 60,000 acres which would make it Michigan’s largest state park. This area provides you with numerous hiking trails and fishing opportunities. In the winter there is a fantastic ski area with 19 runs of varying difficulty including the second highest vertical drop in Michigan. There are 23 miles of groomed trails for cross country skiing or experience the 350 miles of snowmobile trails throughout Ontonagon County. A great event that is put on at the state park is the Porcupine Mountain Music Festival. This year they will be celebrating their 11th annual festival with music consisting of jazz, bluegrass and folk.
