Outdoors, adventure starts close to home. Whitewater and scenic overlooks at the Piers Gorge section of the Menominee River make for unforgettable hikes and family outings. Winter thrills are just down the road at the Pine Mountain Ski Jump, host to elite competitions and a favorite spectator event. Trails and lakes across the county invite biking, snowmobiling, fishing, and quiet paddles, while local ballfields and community parks round out weekend plans.
