Brockway Mountain Drive, Michigan, United States
4.5 (623 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Upper Peninsula Scenic Drives
Always beautiful, do not miss it!
We’ve been up here before, and it truly does not disappoint. If you go for sunset, arrive early for your spot, bring chairs, snacks, blanket as it can get cold and a camera for sure. We went twice this visit, one early evening and it was a zoo, people looking for spots to park, second visit was mid afternoon on a beautiful, but windy day. We had more time to enjoy without all the people walking around looking for the right picture angle. The mountain has two drives one headed towards Eagle Harbor, one towards Copper Harbor, this one is the cool twisty one and has a great overlook about half way, City of Copper Harbor and beyond, really a gorgeous view, don’t pass this by!

A bird's eye view of the Keweenaw Peninsula with your feet firmly on the ground
Brockway Mountain Road is an exhilarating ride to the very top of the Keweenaw Peninsula. Well worth the occasional roadway bumps. The view from the summit is nothing short of amazing with Lake Superior in all is azure splendor stretching beyond the horizon on one side and an undulating sea of trees in fall's green, gold, and orange on the other. There are several pull-offs along the road allowing for different vantage points for the perfect photograph. The best pulloff is at the hairpin turn near the Copper Harbor entrance. That view of Lake Superior, Lake Fannie Hoe, Copper Harbor and its famous light, will linger in your memory for a lifetime.

A must see
Don’t miss this this drive when you visit! The drive up this small mountain is worth the slightly rough road. You can see freighters that look like a tiny boat in this Great Lake! Being at the tip of the Keweenaw peninsula affords you views of the the entire trip you just took to get there! It was raining and windy and still well worth it. I was here about 10 years ago before they torte down the gift shop :( and it still did not disappoint.
