We visited both the Upper and lower falls, it was absolutely stunning! I have visited Tahquamenon Falls previously but this was the first time in the spring and the volume of water was noticeably more intense. If your ever in the UP this is a must see!

The Falls were raging but beautiful, The hike was semi intense being their is a decent amount of snow on the trails. A couple view points are being fixed on both Upper and Lower falls. Great experience forsure..

A nice stop in Michigan to do a little walking. There are upper and lower falls and they are connected by a hike but also have their own parking lots if you choose not to do the hike and would rather drive to each one. There are shuttles that run between the upper and lower falls if you choose not to do the return hike that will bring you back to the parking lot. The shuttles do not run sometimes. It’s a really pretty area and walking areas are mostly flat. There is a spot with 90 steps.

One of my favorite places to visit in the UP, of Michigan. There is a upper and lower falls, both equally beautiful. I visited during the fall time so everything was absolutely gorgeous, a little cooler. I recommend a jacket. The walk was very enjoyable and not challenging at all. Be sure to bring your camera!!

This place is one of the most beautifulest I've seen. The facilities are clean, there is a small cafe and gift shop in park.. The falls are absolutely stunning.. We couldn't see the upper falls due to my disability but I've heard they are amazing and colorful due to the copper the water goes over.. Highly recommend this park
