Why Travel to the UP?

Though Michigan has the distinction of being the only U.S. state with two peninsulas, people mainly associate it with the Lower Peninsula, or the “Mitten” as some affectionately call it. But the Upper Peninsula has much to offer, especially for fans of the great outdoors. State parks, shorelines, historical sites, waterfalls and more are all waiting to be explored.
