About the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

The cliffs and rocky formations that make up Pictured Rocks stretch for more than 15 miles along the shores of Lake Superior in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

These formations are aptly named — the colorful sandstone makes them particularly beautiful to look at, and the interesting formations appear to resemble castle turrets, animals, battleships, human profiles, and more.

In 1966, the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore became the first protected lakeshore in the country. Since then, only two more areas have been designated as such.

While Pictured Rocks is a popular tourist destination in Munising Michigan, it has played a critical role in life in this region for thousands upon thousands of years.

Formation of Pictured Rocks

When you take a look at Pictured Rocks, you are actually getting a snapshot of history. The colorful layers that create the beautiful formations that we see today showcase the development of these formations over millions of years.

Scientists and researchers say that you can see four geologic periods when you look at Pictured Rocks, including the Precambrian, Cambrian, Ordovician, and Quaternary periods.

As the water levels of Lake Superior rose and fell throughout ancient times, the rock formations changed. The layers that are easily seen today showcase how those levels changed, and the many sea caves and arches highlight just how powerful the waters of Lake Superior are.

Human History Along the Park

Native Americans and European settlers have long lived in the region surrounding Pictured Rocks. These rock formations played a pivotal role in both the maritime and logging industries. By the mid-20th century, community leaders thought it best to actively work to protect and preserve the lakeshore.

Pictured Rocks Today

The Pictured Rocks that you visit today are protected and preserved so that generations of people will be able to enjoy the mystical beauty. However, these rock formations are not set in stone.

Similar to a living being, the rock formations are constantly changing and shifting. Erosion continues to impact Pictured Rocks, often revealing new layers for people to enjoy and discover.

Weather Patterns at Pictured Rocks

The Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is notorious for having extreme and unpredictable weather.

The dark, deep waters of Lake Superior have a major impact on the climate in the local region, and the rocks’ location in the far reaches of the Upper Peninsula makes it particularly susceptible to storms, harsh winds, and cool temperatures.

In the spring, fall, and winter you can expect winter-like conditions at the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Temperatures often hover between 25 and 30 degrees Fahrenheit, and snow falls frequently.

Summer may be slow to arrive, but when it does, the weather is gorgeous in this region of Michigan. The average temperature is around 70 degrees, making it cool yet comfortable for Pictured Rocks boat tours.

Things to Do at the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

From relaxing excursions to exciting outdoor activities, there is something for everyone to enjoy at the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. These are the best things to do at Pictured Rocks throughout the year.

Visit Pictured Rocks Visitors Center

Stop at the visitor’s center. I can almost guarantee there are way more cool things to see and do in Pictured Rocks and the Munising area than you’ll have time for.

The Pictured Rocks Visitor Center is the main hub for visitors to the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Located in Munising, the venue offers exhibits, educational programs, and information about the park’s history, geology, and wildlife.

Embark on a Pictured Rocks Cruise

One of the most popular activities for tourists who are visiting Pictured Rocks during the summer and early fall is a tour with Pictured Rocks Cruises.

This seasonal excursion takes visitors onto the water to enjoy a boat ride along the lakeshore where they can see Pictured Rocks the way that it is meant to be seen.

According to UPTravel.com, most Pictured Rocks boat tours begin in Munising Bay and highlight East Channel Lighthouse, Grand Island, Miners Castle, the Painted Coves, Caves of All Colors, Lovers’ Leap, Rainbow Cave, Indian Head, Gull Rookery, Grand Portal, Battleship Rocks, Flower Vase, Indian Drum, Chapel Cove, Chapel Rock, and Spray Falls.

Typically, the cruises operate from mid-May until mid-October, and advanced reservations are recommended. Those who take a tour will enjoy a boat ride that lasts for about three hours, traveling 40 miles round-trip along the shoreline.

During that time, guests can listen to a tour guide narrate the journey and provide additional information about the geological history of the formations, the human history of the area, and more.

Or, you could rent a pontoon boat and make your own tour! Since the Pictured Rocks Lakeshore is home to so many shipwrecks, a glass bottom boat shipwreck tour is a fun option.

Visit the Famous Waterfalls Near Pictured Rocks

As if the sandstone cliffs aren’t beautiful enough, more than half a dozen cascading Pictured Rocks waterfalls are easily accessible to visitors. If you are looking for a waterfall tour during your time at Pictured Rocks, consider including these falls on your itinerary.

I’d recommend picking two to five (depending on how much you like waterfalls) and then trying to work your waterfall visits into other things you’d like to do. For example, if you hike to Chapel Falls, boom, you’ve got a hike and waterfall in for the day, just like that.

Pro Tip: Tannery Falls, Memorial Falls, and Munsing Falls are pretty close together, making them an easy group to see in a short period of time.

Munising Falls

One of the easiest waterfalls to visit in the area, Munising Falls can be accessed via a trail that begins near the city’s downtown area. The paved trail and viewing platforms make it a favorite among guests of all ages and skill levels.

Miners Falls

If you are craving the sound of a crushing waterfall, then this is the stop for you. A half-mile gravel trail off Miners Castle Road will take you to these beautiful waterfalls, and if you would like to reach the lower viewing platform, steps are there to guide you.

Sable Falls

Don’t miss this picturesque waterfall located in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore area of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It is easily accessible by a short hike and offers stunning views of the surrounding forest.

Go Paddling Along the Edge of the Coast

Kayaking and paddling are two irresistible activities for those who seek adventures that allow them to connect with the natural world around them.

While kayaking is popular at Pictured Rocks, most park guides and staff members recommend seriously considering the risks beforehand. Kayaking solo along the shoreline can be dangerous — even the most experienced paddlers are not always prepared for the might of Lake Superior.

If you wish to enjoy this experience, your best bet is to book a guided tour. This will ensure that you have the equipment needed to safely traverse the waters and a trusted guide who can help you navigate along the way. When it comes to paddling along Pictured Rocks, there is strength in numbers.

Au Sable Light Station-Munising

Visit the Au Sable Light Station

Pictured Rocks has long stood guard over the waters of Lake Superior, and this lakeshore has played an important role in Michigan’s maritime history. Naturally, it made sense to design and construct a light station to guide the ships passing by the rocky waters.

Today, visitors to Pictured Rocks can stop by the Au Sable Light Station, which is the only lighthouse located inside the boundaries of the protected national lakeshore.

For more than 150 years, this lighthouse has been assisting mariners as they navigate the dangerous waters of Lake Superior. It was first built in 1873 and was operated by civil light keepers until 1945.

The Coast Guard maintained and operated the tower between 1945 and 1958, at which point it became automated. The Au Sable Light Station is still in operation, and visitors can access the lighthouse via a 1.5-mile trail.

During the summer, lighthouse tours are available on specific days and times for those who are interested in learning more about the history of the light, the keepers who operated it, and the role it continues to play today.

Step Into the Icy Waters of Lake Superior at a Nearby Beach

The beaches along the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore are considered some of the most beautiful in the Upper Peninsula. Known for its soft, white sand and incredible views, these beaches are ideal for a relaxing day at the lakeshore.

Twelvemile Beach

Twelvemile Beach is a stunning public beach located in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It stretches for 12 miles along the shore of Lake Superior. The beach is surrounded by towering sand dunes, lush forests, and crystal-clear waters that are perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding.

Also, visitors can enjoy hiking trails that offer scenic views of the beach and surrounding landscape. Twelvemile Beach is an excellent destination for nature lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway.

Sand Point & Miners Beach

Families who are looking for a place to swim for a bit will love Sand Point Beach, which has shallow areas for splashing. Sometimes, it has warmer water temperatures than other beaches.

Miners Beach is another large beach that attracts tourists who want to spend a day in the sun and sand.

Mosquito Beach

Mosquito Beach is a secluded and scenic beach. It is accessible only by boat or a 3-mile hike from the Chapel-Mosquito Trailhead.

The beach offers stunning views of the towering sandstone cliffs and crystal-clear waters of Lake Superior. Visitors can enjoy swimming, sunbathing, and picnicking in this peaceful and serene setting.

NOTE: Keep in mind that Lake Superior’s shorelines are constantly shifting and changing the landscape of the beaches, so they can look different from year to year. And generally speaking, the water will be pretty cold!

Go Leaf-Peeping Near the Lakeshore

Fall is one of the most spectacular seasons of the year to experience the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

Not only can you glance at the wonder of the rocks themselves, but the colors of the sandstone are amplified by the hues of gold, crimson, and orange that burst from the trees. The best ways to experience the fall colors at Pictured Rocks include:

  • Taking a late-season Pictured Rocks cruise
  • Spending a day on one of the beaches
  • Hiking the trails to see the depth of the colors throughout the park

Try Your Hand at Ice Climbing

For a less-than-typical winter activity, consider ice climbing along the cliffs in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

However, we don’t actually mean the sandstone cliffs that rise from the waters of Lake Superior — while ice cliffs are common along Pictured Rocks, they are not safe for climbing. Safer spots to go ice climbing include:

  • Sand Point, which is known for its curtains of blue ice formations
  • Miners Falls, which is accessible only after a 3-mile snowshoe hike

Ice climbing is best reserved for those who have experience and who own the right equipment to safely enjoy the activity. For the most part, you will find ice cliff formations along the lakeshore from late December until early April.

Choose a Trail to Hike Through the Heart of Pictured Rocks

More than 100 miles of trails wind throughout the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, leading hikers into dense, forested areas along the sandstone cliffs and up toward waterfalls.

There are tons of great hikes in Pictured Rocks, so I’d recommend picking one with a length that looks right for your hiking ability (use the map that you got from the visitors center) and then hitting the trail first thing in the morning.

It’s a great way to get active before the sun blazes down on you, and besides, there are fewer people on the trails in the morning. I like to hike along the beach to the Au Sable Lighthouse as well as hike to Chapel Falls. Both of those are roughly three miles round trip.

Hikers will be able to find a variety of trails that suit their skill levels and allow them to enjoy the experiences that they prefer. Popular hiking trails in Pictured Rocks include:

  • Sand Point Marsh Trail — 0.5 miles
  • Grand Sable Dunes Trail — 2.5 miles
  • Spray Falls Trail — 2.5 miles
  • Au Sable Light Station Trail — 3.5 miles
  • Mosquito Falls Trail — 3.5 miles
  • Beaver Creek Trail — 7.2 miles
  • Chapel Loop Trail — 10.4 miles
  • Chapel-Mosquito Trail — 10.8 miles
  • North Country Trail — 42 miles (section through Pictured Rocks)

Miners Castle Trail

One of the best day hikes in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is the hike to Miners Castle Overlook. The trail that leads to the overlook is less than 1 mile, making it easy for people of all skill levels to reach.

Once you get to the overlook, you will find three viewing platforms, so there is plenty of space to soak up the natural beauty that surrounds you.

Miners Beach Trail

If you are in search of a longer hike, you might consider the Miners Castle to Miners Beach Trail. Spanning for about 2 miles, this trail will take you down from the overlook to the gorgeous views of Miners Beach.

As you traverse through the forested areas, you will need to wade across Miners River. It’s a trail that is both rigorous and relaxing, making it a favorite among hikers with some experience.

Where to Stay Near the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

Leave the hotels for Traverse City. When you come to Pictured Rocks, you’re camping. There are three campgrounds in the National Lakeshore and many state campgrounds right nearby.

If you like to be near Lake Superior, I’d recommend grabbing a spot at either Lower Hurricane River campground or Twelvemile Beach campground.

Both campgrounds tend to fill up quickly in summer, though, so get there early if you can. However, there is constant turnover so it can’t hurt to drive around and look for a spot even if you don’t roll in until later in the day.
