Pack some snacks and enjoy a relaxing family day out at Nara Nature Park. There's plenty of space for the kids to run about and get some exercise.
This outdoor recreational space is often on the itineraries of visitors to Houghton. But Nara Nature Park isn't the area's only highlight. Michigan Technological University, Houghton–Hancock Bridge, and Mont Ripley Ski Area are some other interesting sights nearby.
