A welcoming lakeside town and the gateway to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Saint Ignace is also an important resupply spot if you're hiking the NCT. It’s an ideal place to take a break—restock your gear, enjoy local spots like Driftwood or B.C. Pizza, and soak up Lake Huron views from the scenic boardwalk. If you have time, visit the Museum of Ojibwa Culture to learn about the area’s rich history or hop on the ferry to Mackinac Island for an unforgettable side trip.
