When you consider landscapes in Michigan, towering hills might not be the first formations that come to mind. After all, our state is largely known for its gorgeous beaches, beautiful forests, and stunning sand dunes. But there’s one spot here in the Great Lakes State that will take you on an entirely new adventure throughout Michigan’s natural splendor – and you’ll soon feel like you’re high above the clouds.

Mount Arvon is situated within the Huron Mountains in beautiful L’anse Township.

You’ll want to be sure your car is equipped for handling rough terrain. While many cars can make the trek, you might not want to bring your small luxury vehicle up the hillside.
