Presque Isle Park is the crowned jewel for exploring nature in Marquette. The park features walking trails and paved roads for walking, driving, and biking. The isle stretches out into Lake Superior via some rocky outcrops and a breakwater, both of which you can walk out onto. The paved road loop is closed to cars 2 hours each day, that way cyclists can safely have the road to themselves. Check at the visitor's center to get the daily closure hours!

By 1960, all passenger services ended on this railroad. Diesel replaced steam by 1962. Marquette tourist railroad preserved LS&I's steam locomotives until 2002.

The Iron Ore Heritage Trail is a 47-mile, year round, multi-use, interpretive trail that crosses the Marquette Iron Range. It travels through some of the key historical industrial sites located in and around Marquette. Trailheads are located at the Marquette Welcome Center in Marquette and in Republic west of Marquette.

This is simply a magnificent structure. It is the historic Ore Dock that is in Marquette’s Lower Harbor. It is a relic of Marquette’s iron ore mining and maritime industry used for loading ore onto lake freighters. It is no longer in use today but was once a prominent pillar to the local Marquette economy. The Upper Harbor Ore Dock at Presque Isle is still in use for those interested in seeing such a giant structure in its working environment.
