Porcupine Mountains State Park,
Fall Color Tour
South Shore of the Lake Superior Circle Tour
The Porkies cover 60,000 acres and is Michigan's largest state park. Within the park is a block of old-growth forest comprising almost 35,000 acres and considered by some to be the biggest and best stand of virgin Northern Hardwoods and Hemlock in North America. This forest makes for some particularly attractive color during the fall. You can get some of the best fall color pictures in the Upper Peninsula.
