If you visit Munising, this is a must visit location! Munising falls is a very easy, very short walk, down a paved path to get to the falls. Once you reach the falls, there are stairs you can choose to go up to get different views, but it's optional. The best view is right there in front of you. There is a nice big parking lot, a small visitors area, and modern bathrooms as well. I advise you take a bathroom break here if you are out adventuring for the day! This waterfall is beautiful in all seasons! As many times as I have seen it, I am always excited to go back and see it again!

The picturesque Munising Fall is a great location for taking pictures while enjoying the view from afar. The mini hike to this point is one enjoyable experience. We were here on a rainy day, so the road was a little slippery but it was fun exploring the area and get to the point to see this beautiful, magnificent Fall. It's very close to the Munising Falls Visitor Center, perhaps about half a mile. So, do not miss seeing the fall if you're here to plan your trip across the Park.

There's a very short walk to the falls and there are multiple viewing platforms. There is a large parking lot here and there is a building with restrooms. The visitor's center is just a trailer with a window for now as it is a temp building while they are preparing a permanent one. The rangers are friendly and you can stamp your national parks passport book here. If you don't have a pass for Pictured Rocks, this should be your first stop in the park.

Located in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Park, this waterfall is easily accessible via the trail from the visitor center. The 800 ft trail will take you to a juncture where you can view the waterfall on the lower by a boardwalk or take the stairs to view the upper part of the falls. There is a large parking lot by the visitor center. Keep in mind this is part of the National Park System and you will need to purchase a park pass.

Small waterfall just a couple minutes out of Munising. Nice view from below, and there's an upper view to the right. Off of the path to the right, at the top of the stairs, is a beaten trail that actually goes up to the top of the falls. No railings or anything up there so I'd be cautious. But it's a nice view down and really quiant spot int he woods by the creek that feeds the falls.

Munising Falls itself (the waterfall) isn't that impressive compared to the other falls in the region, but what this trail offers that others don't is an extremely up close look at the sandstone earth formations that make up the national Pictured Rocks lakeshore. The drive in is easy and the hike is easy too. Take the stairs, it's worth it.
