Welcome to Alger County

Munising - Alger County's largest town - is nestled between Lake Superior and rolling wooded hills; scenic Grand Island lies just off shore in the bay.  Long a destination for tourists, the community's most prominent attraction is the beautiful Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.  These colorful and majestic rock formations may be viewed by cruise boat or air tours.  Hiking trails through the lakeshore span 42.8 miles between Munising on the west and Grand Marais on the east.

Some rock formations and waterfalls require only short walks to enjoy; others take longer, more challenging hikes. An Underwater Preserve - something like a shipwreck museum below the surface of the lake - includes about a dozen dive sites.  Non-divers can view these relics of maritime history from the glass viewing deck of a tour boat. 

Miles of routes for hiking, canoeing, kayak trips, Camping, mountain biking as well as lookouts over Lake Superior and open water boating can be accessed with the help of outfitters offering equipment rentals.
