§ 02 — OVERVIEW
The Munising and Rapid River/Manistique Ranger Districts of the Hiawatha National Forest offer a variety of camping experiences. Many are located on inland lakes in a rustic forest environment with no drinking water.
The rustic environment offers a wonderfully serene and peaceful setting for your next camping experience.
