Recreation
With hundreds of miles of hiking and biking trails, ample opportunities for boating, canoeing, skiing, and camping, Michigan is truly an outdoor recreational hotspot. From sun-filled summer days to snowy winters, the tourism industry in Michigan thrives because we offer recreation for all seasons.
The widely successful campaign, “Pure Michigan” illustrates the beauty of our state, and attracts tourists from across the country. But this industry, and the recreational opportunities it showcases, means nothing without good policies that support smart land management, water protection, funding for our state parks, and opportunities for bicyclists and boaters. Keeping our land and water healthy will only enhance the value of our state and grow our economy; it’s crucial that recreation play a role in keeping Michigan pure.
