Northeast Michigan Trip Planner

Welcome to Northeast Michigan!

The majority of Northeast Michigan is dominated by Mackinaw State Forest and Huron National Forest, which provide a host of recreational activities ranging from hiking and biking to camping and fishing. Four state parks—Hoeft, Thompson's Harbor, Negwegon and Harrisville—situated along the shores of Lake Huron await outdoor enthusiasts wishing to fish and participate in a range of watersports and outdoor activities. Alpena, also located on Lake Huron, is the center of commerce and culture in this sparsely populated region of Michigan. For a break from recreation, visit the Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan in Alpena and explore the realms of art, history and science through exhibits, lectures and workshops. Just northeast of Grayling is Hartwick Pines State Park, where visitors can participate in a number of outdoor activities and learn about Michigan's logging history at the Hartwick Pines Logging Museum.
