オントナゴン郡の湖・トップ3

Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, often referred to as "the Porkies," is the largest state park in Michigan, spanning an impressive 60,000 acres of pristine old-growth forest, cascading waterfalls, and Lake Superior's picturesque shoreline. This breathtaking natural sanctuary offers stunning vistas, including the iconic Lake of the Clouds and the beautiful Presque Isle River corridor. The park also preserves historic copper mining sites, for a unique glimpse into the history of this beautiful area of the Midwest.

Cuyahoga Peak is the largest and most northerly of the three peaks on the Escarpment Ridge. Standing at 1,571 feet, hikers are treated to views of the Lake of the Clouds in the distance.

The second largest of the three peaks on the Escarpment Ridge Trail, it is the closest peak to the Lake of the Clouds and offers stunning views of the crystal blue waters below.

Mirror Lake is an excellent stop-off point for an overnighter hiking trip. There are 4 cabins and 7 campsites dotted around the lake, all with excellent views of the blue waters. In the late summer mosquitos can be quite bad, so bring lots of repellent!

The magnificent blue waters of the Lake of the Clouds are surrounded by the ancient forests on the slopes of the Porcupine Mountains. This area is said to be the most photographed in the entirety of the national park, and once you take a look for yourself you will see why. The overlooks of the lake are easily accessible from the nearby car park.
