Outdoor Recreation
West Michigan is a theoretical amusement park full of outdoor adventures during every season.
Sixteen feet of Lake Effect snowfall per year is not an inconvenience; it is an opportunity. Skiers, snowmobilers, skaters and snowshoers descend upon dozens of ski areas and resorts. Meanwhile, a snowshoe hike across Sleeping Bear Dunes takes you through a landscape that was just voted the most beautiful place in America by Good Morning America.

If you spend your days counting down until the temperature begins to climb, West Michigan will surely meet your anticipation wholeheartedly. By land or sea, the adventurous will find warm weather excitement and satisfaction. Go hiking, biking or walking along hundreds of trails, beaches and state parks. More than 11,000 lakes and 36,000 miles of streams lend to the perfect day spent fishing, surfing, swimming or enjoying a leisurely cruise.
Fall turns the already picturesque landscape into a fiery masterpiece. Take a scenic chair lift ride up a mountain or paddle one of West Michigan’s waterways to experience the effervescent scents and sounds of this unique time of year.
