Michigan State Parks, Trails and Waterways

You’re never more than an hour from a @MichiganDNR state park! Don't miss the state forest campgrounds, trails and harbors, too! #MiStateParks

[Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer]

With 103 state parks, Michigan truly has something for everyone:

✅ Sandy dunes

✅ Scenic coastlines

✅ Peaceful forests

✅ Vibrant sunsets

✅ Gorgeous waterfalls 

Tomorrow kicks off Parks & Recreation month, a perfect time to explore the great outdoors  🏕️

Making the most of Michigan's beaches before summer washes away? 🌊 Let's keep our waters clean:

🐾 Pick up after your dog
🦆 Don’t feed wildlife, especially on the beach
♻️ Dispose of waste properly and recycle what you can

Nearly 50% of endangered or threatened fish, wildlife and plants are at risk due to #InvasiveSpecies.

Good news - you can keep our natural spaces healthy with easy steps like cleaning your gear before leaving or arriving at a park or water. https://t.co/sdBfSUMp9y #PlayCleanGo

Time spent on or near water is linked to improved health & wellness. ☮️🌊
