I imagine it’s a great spot to cool off in the summer!!
1/2 mile or so walk to the beginning of the falls. The Sturgeon River cuts through a canyon, resulting in an amazing place that feels like it belongs far away from Michigan. The falls continue as you go. Follow blue blazes painted on trees for North Country Trail to continue past the first large falls viewing area. There are a few areas that are accessible for swimming and jumping. The first larger falls is shallow. You can swim here but the falls is very strong so be careful. Brave souls can sit behind the falls. Farther down there are two areas where you can jump off of cliffs. The first is lower and relatively easy to exit the water. The second is a bit farther down and is higher. This point is more difficult to exit. You must either climb up a rope up the cliff wall or swim/drift downstream to an easier exit point (but be VERY careful because the current can be strong and the second exit point can be easily missed). Somebody attempted the trail in a wheelchair and was having a heck of a time. I would not call this trail accessible.
You can follow the North Country Trail for quite a while beyond just the overlook.
Very nice park in the UP.Walk to the falls is not overly long but somewhat challenging as a lot of the boardwalk is old and could use repair. There are many great views but when you reach the canyon falls it is spectacular to say the least. No one should miss this stop on their trip in the UP.
Great spot to make a trip out to.
This roadside park has a hidden gem of the waterfalls. Well worth stopping to see and enjoy.
Very nice roadside park and rest stop. Nice trail that takes you to view some beautiful waterfalls. A must to see. It's free and trails easy walking.
