Tahquamenon Falls State Park is Michigan’s second-largest state park, following the path of the Tahquamenon River to Lake Superior’s Whitefish Bay. The 46,179-acre park is located within Whitefish and McMillan Townships near the city of Paradise and receives approximately half a million annual visitors. It is named for the spectacular Tahquamenon Falls, the eastern United States’ second most voluminous waterfall after famed Niagara Falls, which showcases a much-photographed 50-foot single drop. 22 miles of hiking trails provide access to a variety of undeveloped habitats, and outdoor recreation opportunities include fishing, canoeing, wildlife watching, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. Four campgrounds, a restaurant, and a gift shop are also located near the falls.
