You can enjoy biking, golf, hiking and unlimited water sports at a variety of fine facilities in Alger, Marquette, Schoolcraft and Delta Counties.  If you’re interested in a day of fishing on Lake Superior, charter boats are available in Shelter Bay, Munising and Marquette.

The area around AuTrain offers many recreational opportunities.  The AuTrain Songbird Trail is an interesting 2 mile hike that offers a new way to identify birds.   Alger County is the home of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Grand Island National Recreation Area.
