Locals call Michigans Upper Peninsula the world above the bridge. Here youll discover miles of freshwater coastline, hundreds of picturesque trails, and countless inland lakes, rivers, and waterfalls.

Sporting a rustic, even austere terrain, the U.P.s sparse population provides peace and solitude. The eastern portion, part of the Great Lakes plain, contrasts sharply with the rocky western half. Each offers idyllic settings for camping, boating, and fishing. Theres a good chance youll see moose, black bears, red foxes, and white-tailed deer. Around these parts, packing a camera is an absolute necessity.

In many U.P. towns, descendants of European immigrants maintain the traditions of their ancestors from Scandinavia, Cornwall, Germany, or Italy. The blend of heritage and warm hospitality in the region can be absorbed through the food: Enjoy meatballs at a Swedish caf, homemade ravioli at an Italian eatery, or try a Cornish pasty (a bread turnover filled with pork, chicken, or venison), a local favorite.

So, what doesnt the U.P. have? Crowds and congestion. Even the larger population centers have a small-town feel, exemplified by the absence of parking meters. With a population density of just 19 people per square mile, Michigans extreme north offers plenty of room to explore.

Welcome to Americas northern paradise.

As the only physical connection between the two peninsulas, all the traffic from the Lower Peninsula funnels onto the five-mile-long Mackinac Bridge and into the great northern counterpart. The photogenic span prompts many travelers to stop with their cameras. Uniquely charming Mackinac Island endures as one of Americas perfect getaways, while historic sites and state parks both on and off the island bring the regions bountiful history to life. For some fascinating exposure to this history, visit Colonial Michilimackinac in Mackinaw City and Fort Mackinac on Mackinac Island.

Escanaba and the Lake Michigan Shore

The Lake Michigan shoreline makes for a pleasant drive, with waterfront stops and sandy beaches awaiting off U.S. 2. The Garden Peninsula, which juts out into Lake Michigan, is home to Fayette Historic State Park, which memorializes the regions mining history. Continuing to the southwest, Escanaba and Menominee each offer their special appeal. An old mining town, Escanaba is experiencing a rebirth. Be sure not to overlook the citys waterfront, where you can tour the Sand Point Lighthouse and spend time in Ludington Park.

The Superior Upland

The western U.P. is known for fantastic recreation at Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park (a.k.a. the Porkies). In summer, miles and miles of hiking trails lure visitors; in winter, the areas relatively mountainous terrain and extreme levels of snowfall combine to make Ironwood and its environs the top downhill destination in the Midwest, with many noteworthy ski resorts to choose from.

Keweenaw Peninsula and Isle Royale

Copper Harbor, at the top of the Keweenaw Peninsula, is mainland Michigans end of the road. But along the journey, the twin cities of Houghton and Hancock offer a cosmopolitan experience characteristic of college towns. Continuing north youll find the historic town of Calumet, perhaps the most telling remnant of the glory days of Michigan copper mining.

Sequestered by Lake Superior, the rugged Isle Royale National Park can be reached only by boat or plane. The quiet isolation of the island park offers the best recreation in the U.P. as well as a chance to see reclusive moose and
