Review & FAQ:

Whitefish Dunes State Park was created in order to protect the fragile dune ecosystem on the eastern Door County Peninsula. The park is great place for strolling along Lake Michigan, watching waterfowl or fishing at Clark Lake, walking across the boardwalk to visit the wetlands. The park has more than 14.5 miles of hiking trails that wind throughout the forested sand dunes and beech forests. No climbing the dunes is allowed. Visitors are requested to stay on trails to protect the rare plants and animals that live in Whitefish Dunes. The park's nature center offers year-round programs, displays and exhibits on ecology, geology and human history. No camping is allowed.
