We almost did not go because the temp was in the 60's, but we are so glad we made the 2 hour trip. It was so much fun!! The water was warm and our guide, McKenzie, was AWESOME!! She made the whole experience exciting and she was very engaging. All the guides seemed great! I went with my husband and 2 son's, 17 and 14. Highlight of our UP trip. The river and the surrounding area was absolutely beautiful. Wish we could've gotten pictures of that. FYI- if you are coming from the East, Iron Mountain is in a different time zone, which we were unaware of, therefore we arrived super early. Just something to keep in kind.

This is a great place to visit. It can be broken into segments. Many folks just walk to one or two vantage points (20 or 30 minutes) but you can see all of them, recommended, in about 2 hours. You shouldn't miss this Trail if you are in the area.

Located just each of Quinnesec traffic light, and across road from an RV sales & service business. This is a free road stop with a beautiful little waterfall, just for our enjoyment. There's a few picnic tables & some bathrooms (not really indoor). Just sit back and view the falls in peace. There are also hiking/climbing trails leading to the top of falls & beyond. Some local folks hold weddings with the falls as backdrop. It is seasonal; closed during cold weather. I think there's a geocaching spot here too.
4. Iron Mountain Iron Mine
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 94 reviews
Guided Underground Tours -- A certified Michigan State Historical Landmark. This fascinating tour is family fun and educational too!! You won't forget the experience of visiting the Iron Mountain Iron Mine with skilled guides who take you through 2600 feet of underground drifts and tunnels to 400 feet below the earth's surface to see an amazing underground, lighted cavern giving you a close up view of strange geological formations. Watch tour guides operate mining machinery that was used over 100 years ago. Ride the underground mine train into the tunnel and walk approximately 2 city blocks to see the reality of iron ore mining. Over 21 million tons of iron ore was taken from this mine during 1877 to 1945. Visitors are given rain coats and hard hats before the tour begins. The temperature of the mine is a crisp 43 degrees, so a sweater or jacket is recommended along with closed covered shoes.

The Iron Mountain Mine tour began with an array of mining equipment just outside the mine entrance. Then, wearing hard hats and rain coats, we were taken in open cars along tracks leading into the mine. The tour was very interesting and our young guide...MoreThank you for taking the time to review our business! Much appreciated!!
5. Norway Spring

Norway Spring has a story. While drilling for iron ore, a local mining company perforated an aquifer and created this artesian well (a spring). They built this stone mound around it with a spot to drink like from a fountain and a compartment to fill jugs. The water is clear, cold and delicious. The well is so deep that there is no danger of contamination.
There is a nice highway pull off which is very safe from passing cars. Kids will be fascinated by the water coming from the ground, and you can take five minutes to stretch your legs. There's an interpretive sign and a picnic table.
What's not to like? And just across the highway is an Alpaca Farm.
6. Pellegrini Farms

Reviewed By ReeReeRocks - Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
The large farm generally opens for strawberry picking around the 4th of July each year. They have flat cardboard boxes/carriers available for pickers (you can keep the cardboard box - I guess it is included in the price or there was a small fee for it). They charge by the pound and are reasonably priced. A very efficient and organized setup, though parking is on the roadside or in a bumpy dirt lot. It is one of the only strawberry farms in the area so is very popular. They also have other seasonable fruits and vegetables during the year. Well worth the stop! Hours when we stopped were morning only, although they do recommend you call ahead to confirm their hours for the day.

A revisit with our guests who'd not been here earlier. The outdoor veranda around the store allows folks to view the alpacas, and feed them too. (get the feed from a dispenser) The alpacas are looking for it!
Its still a great place; anyone who is a crafter &/or knitter will find lots to
interest them!

Reviewed By Sally1382 - Madison, Wisconsin
Despite just being over the border in Michigan, Pier's Gorge is included in Marinette County's official waterfalls tour. It is relatively easy to get to and the walking path is in excellent condition. The area is used for many other activities like boating and fishing so the hiking is not treacherous. Since this is a gorge and not a waterfall, it lacks a spectacular cascade but it is still nice to look at and the area is beautiful.
