Munising Travel Guide: 69 reviews and 129 photos
Located along Lake Superior, 43 miles from Marquette, Munising is a small town of about 2,800. Surrounded by hills on three sides, and Grand Island to the north, the town sits in a harbor, which is protected from the violence of Lake Superior's gales. If you are an outdoor type of person you will love the area. Home to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, as well as of Grand Island National Recreation Area, and the gateway to the Hiawatha National Forest West, there are a number of outdoor opportunities to take advantage of. You will find miles of crystal clear water, sandy beaches, back-country hiking trails, as well as bicycle, skin diving, and boating opportunities
Pictured Rocks National Lake Shore is one of the gems of Lake Superior and a must see when you are in the Munising area.
- Pros:A great place for the outdoorsman.
- Cons:A lousy place for the shopper.
- In a nutshell:A wonderful area for outdoor adventure both winter and summer.

Great descriptions of the Pictured Rocks ! I am a former Munising resident now on my way to Germany.
