Sable Falls

Sable Falls is situated in the easternmost section of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Alger County, Michigan. H-58, which runs west of Grand Marais, Michigan, is the primary access road to the falls. The falls cascade 75 feet over the sandstone formations of Munising and Jacobsville. This is also one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Michigan.

About a half-mile separates the waterfall from Lake Superior. The falls can be reached pretty easily thanks to the stairs. In order to give visitors access to the lesser (lower) falls and rapids downstream, the park service extended the boardwalk along the falls between 2007 and 2010 to encompass a section of Sable Creek. The location is not handicap accessible.

From the trailhead in Grand Marais, the journey to Sable Falls requires a straightforward, kid-friendly hike. There is a parking lot nearby as well. You can extend your journey to the falls by taking a day trip to adjacent attractions like the Grand Sable Dunes and Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on Lake Superior.
