This loop hike explores a large section of Grand Island, an off-shore island located in Lake Superior just north of Munising. The hike starts from the boat landing and goes clockwise to complete a loop that covers the southern portion of the west half of the island. Scenery along the way includes cliff-top views of the lake and Pictured Rocks cliffs as well as lots of hiking through heavily wooded terrain that is home to a variety of wildlife. The island is accessible by a passenger ferry that typically runs between the months of May to October but check current schedules to ensure the ferry is running. The island is known for an abundance of bugs during some of the summer months so come prepared with lots of bug repellant.
