Gogebic County

Gogebic County is the western gateway to a playground that never closes. Pick a season, any season and you'll see why this is where Mother Nature pulled out all the stops. Abundant snow in teh winter melts into rushing waterfalls in spring. Summer offers water fun on lakes, rivers and streams and Autumn brings a blaze of color to our abundant forests. We are home to Lake Superior and the Ottawa National Forest, the North Country National Scenic Hiking Trail, the Black River National Scenic Byway and Copper Peak Adventure Ride, as well as the Sylvania Wilderness and Cisco Chain of Lakes. 

Waterfalls are spectacular whatever the season. In winter, they are partially frozen; spring, they are thunderous with the runoff of melting snow; in summer, the mist rises upward in the bright sunlight and in fall is outlined with nature's colors. The Black River National Scenic Byway features five waterfalls with varying access and the only harbor operated by the USDA Forest Service in the lower 48 states. Potawatomi Falls is barrier free, Great Conglomerate has a natural access. The choices are ample and yours for the making.
