Northeast Michigan at a Glance
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.
