Copper Harbor
Brockway Mountain Dr. is an 8.8 mile scenic highway stretching along the Keweenaw Peninsula, and is also part of the Copper Country Trail National Scenic Byway. When you visit this area, I suggest taking an afternoon to slowly travel along the Brockway Mountain Trail before heading toward the rest of the byway so you can fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan’s upper peninsula.
The scenic overlooks offer panoramic views of the Michigan coast, and the forests and landscape give you that feeling of awe that only happens in nature. Check out our list of Scenic Hiking Trails in Michigan to find the best spots in Copper Harbor to stretch your legs during your road trip.
