The Upper Peninsula

Discover The Unforgettable

Some places stay with you forever. Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, bordered by three Great Lakes, sculpted by ancient mountains, rivers and forests, calls to those who thrive on discovery. It’s all waiting for you —  in the U.P.

Be Carefree in the U.P.

This spring or summer, take a free-to-be-you vacation. Let the Great Lakes breezes carry your stress away as you fill your days and nights with pure, carefree joy. Dive into what excites you most — whether adventuring with family, friends or on your own.  

Hike untamed mountains to spectacular overlooks. Paddle across mirror-smooth waters or conquer churning rapids. Push your limits on white-knuckle mountain bike trails or ride your ATV full-throttle down twisty, mud-flinging roads. Step back in time on Mackinac Island and into story-filled mines and centuries-old towns.

Venture where few dare to go — explore the remote wonders of Isle Royale. Lose yourself in the dazzling Northern Lights or the ethereal depths of Kitch-iti-kipi. Love eating like a local, chase the thrill of finding a Yooperlite — or simply embrace the silence and rediscover yourself.

Entrust your heart to the U.P.
