We visited during an unusually cool spring but were still able to enjoy some great hiking. We drove from Munising and started at Sable Falls. We then drove to the Log Slide Overlook to check our GREAT views of the Dunes and a distant Au Sable Light station. We moved on the the Hurricane River Campsite and chose to hike... more

Pictured Rocks National Park is well worth a visit but make sure you do your research on the park before visiting. Some of the must see sites in the park (Miners Castle, Pictured Rocks boat tour, Chapel Falls) are closer to Munising and some of the sites are closer to Grand Marais (Au Sable Lighthouse, Grand Sable Dunes and Grand... more

It's pretty secluded up there. The... more

We have been to the Pictured Rocks before and done the boat ride which is great. But this trip was just past season and we still enjoyed all the beautiful hike to the gorgeous waterfalls around the area. Worth a visit when the leaves are changing. more
