Adventure 41:
Located in St, Ignace, MI Straits State Park has more than 180 acres to roam. With fantastic views of the Mackinac Bridge and Straits of Mackinac, the park alsp features a campground, overnight lodging facilities, picnic areas, viewing platforms, a playground and a waterfront area along Lake Huron. The North Country Trail goes through the park, a portion of which travels along the park’s 1-mile hiking trail.
The park is a destination on the Northern Huron Birding Trail and is especially noteworthy during spring and fall as birds migrate across the narrow straits between the Upper and Lower peninsulas. This location also makes the park a great home base to visit other area attractions, including Mackinac Island, Mackinac State Historic Parks, the Soo Locks and Tahquamenon Falls.
This park is open year round and does require an admission fee or recreation passport (available through the MI DNR). Bring a quarter to see the Mackinac Bridge up close!
