Find your kind of park

Is this your kind of park?

Choose High Cliff for a bluff-and-lake setting rather than Lake Michigan dunes. Start with the upper park or the shoreline, then pick the walking and water activities that fit.

A starting plan. Let the weather, current notices, and your group set the pace.

Take the trip checklist →
  1. Use the official map to distinguish upper-park features from shoreline access. Check the route between your chosen stops.

  2. Read the route’s terrain and permitted uses before choosing a longer walk. Confirm access for the exact feature your group needs.

  3. If using the marina or campground, check that service’s arrangements separately. Keep a day-use plan that works around the booking.
