Alger Falls

Alger Falls in Munising, Michigan is an easy walk that leads up a creek to reach the base of the 25-foot tall multi-tier waterfall, Alger Falls.

This is not a hike and more of a roadside stop as visitors can actually view the waterfall directly on M-28. Visitors can pull off M-28 and into the small turnout to view Alger Falls. If you're used to creek hiking and don't mind getting your feet or boots muddy, you can also hop over the guardrail to walk up to the base of the waterfall for a better view. Alger Fall cascades down the bedrock ledges at about 25-feet tall in total, but cascades over these ledges, making for a multi-tiered waterfall.

Parking
Visitors can find a parking turnout at the coordinates provided, located on the north side of M-28. The lot is located directly across the street from M-94. Important: if you plan to view the waterfall from your car, also plan to fully pull over from M-28. As I hiked out of this waterfall, a tourist car from Vermont came to a complete stop on M-28 with cars behind them, who laid on their horn. These people stopped to see what I was looking at as they noticed me coming up to the road from the creek... don't be like these people and simply pull over to view the waterfall.

Pets
While technically allowed, dogs should probably wait in the car unless you want your dog covered in mud.
