Things to do in Marquette

Marquette is the largest city in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, set on the rocky shore of Lake Superior and long tied to the iron mines of the nearby Marquette Iron Range. A massive ore dock still loads freighters in the harbor, and the city’s sandstone buildings date from the mining boom. Today the economy rests on Northern Michigan University, the region’s major hospital, government, mining and a growing outdoor recreation and tourism industry, and the city has become a magnet for mountain bikers, skiers and people seeking a slower pace of life.

  1. 01

    Presque Isle Park

    This wooded peninsula on Lake Superior has a loop road and trails past red sandstone cliffs, with views of the ore dock and famous sunsets over the lake.

  2. 02

    Sugarloaf Mountain

    North of town, a short, steep trail climbs to the summit of this rocky knob, rewarding hikers with sweeping views of Lake Superior and the surrounding forest.

  3. 03

    Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

    About an hour east near Munising, colorful sandstone cliffs, sea caves, waterfalls and beaches line Lake Superior, best seen by boat tour or kayak.

  4. 04

    Marquette Harbor Lighthouse

    This red brick lighthouse stands on a rocky point at the harbor entrance, and the Marquette Maritime Museum offers tours alongside exhibits on Great Lakes shipping.

  5. 05

    Noquemanon Trail Network

    Marquette’s extensive trail system draws mountain bikers in summer and fat-tire bikers and cross-country skiers in winter, with routes right from the edge of town.

  6. 06

    Lower Harbor Park

    On the downtown waterfront, this park hosts summer concerts and festivals beside the historic Lower Harbor ore dock, steps from the shops and restaurants of Washington Street.
