Tahquamenon Falls State Park, Michigan’s UP

posted in: Blogging 0

Tahquamenon Falls State Park, located in Paradise, Michigan encompasses almost 50,000 acres stretching 13 miles. The centerpiece of the park and its reason for existence is the waterfalls of the Tahquamenon River. The Upper Falls is over 200 feet wide with a 50 foot drop. A few miles downstream, the Lower Falls are a series of five smaller falls cascading around an island. Both the Upper and Lower falls are easily accessible with a short walk. Admission at the time of our visit was $10 daily or $36 annually (non resident) for the State Parks Recreation Passport. The Park offers a wide variety of activities such as camping, hiking, fishing and canoeing. Tahquamenon Falls State Park is a must see while visiting Michigan’s Upper Peninsula!
