The Sault Ste. Marie Area Is A Beautiful Place To Visit
No trip to Michigan would be complete without a visit to the northernmost region where the St. Mary's River divides the United States from Canada. The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge spans the two countries, and connects two cities with the same name, one in America and one in Canada. This is an area of unbelievable natural beauty on both the Lake Superior side and Lake Huron side of Michigan's upper peninsula.
No trip here would be complete without a visit to the Soo Locks. They are one of the largest and busiest engineering achievements in the northern hemisphere. From May through October you have an opportunity to book a cruise in order to experience firsthand the massive amount of ships that pass through the locks each day. Lighthouse cruises, dining cruises, and fireworks cruises are available.
Tahquamenon Falls is another site of amazing beauty. If you have the chance, you should visit both the upper and lower levels. They are completely different, but are equally impressive. These waterfalls are larger than any other you will find east of the Mississippi River. There are plenty of hiking trails and paths to explore. If you get hungry, the brewery has delicious menu items to choose from.
Something else most people never get to witness are the actual remains of shipwrecks. There are sites located in several areas in Lake Superior. Some are accessible to scuba divers. What is left is often scattered over a large area of the lake floor. If you are interested in this type of maritime history, but diving is not for you, you can take a glass bottom boat tour. There is at least one old wooden ship resting just under the water and clearly visible to visitors.
If you have the time, you should consider taking an Agawa Canyon train tour. The scenery is exceptional, especially in the fall when leaves are turning. Scheduled stopovers are planned during the summer and fall months so visitors will be able to spend an hour or so hiking the trails in the wilderness park.
After you have spent the day in the great outdoors, you might want to take some time enjoying yourself at the gaming tables provided by Kewadin Casino. There are several of these casinos located throughout Michigan that people visit to try their luck. If gambling is not your interest, the DreamMakers Theater, located inside the establishment, usually has a headliner for visitors to enjoy.
Even year round residents of this region never get enough of the Northern Lights. Although no one knows exactly when they will appear in the sky, though many try to time their trips to correspond with the most favorable conditions for the display. They usually make their appearance in the spring and fall, but not always. It depends completely on what is happening on the sun's surface.
Everyone knows how beautiful the landscape is on both coasts with their beaches and sunshine. The middle of this country should not be overlooked however. It has wonders and extraordinary scenery of its own.
