Dead River Falls is a half-mile stretch of the Dead River located just outside Marquette, Michigan with an astonishing succession of waterfalls.
This arduous trail takes hikers upstream where they’ll find the first major fall spilling over the edge and dropping straight down into a sparkling pool.
The hike continues along the river revealing the next major fall that slides over the rock face as it plunges over 15 feet down.
Here visitors can climb down the rocky ledges to the base of the waterfall. The final major fall splashes down three ledges into a tranquil pool of calming waters and marks the turnaround point of the hike.
