Paddling near Hubbell, MI

Hubbell sits in Houghton County on Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula, a finger of land surrounded by Lake Superior on three sides. The area is anchored by the Western U.P. Water Trail and the Keweenaw Water Trail—a 110-plus-mile designated sea kayak route established in 1995. Within a short drive, paddlers reach inland lakes, quiet rivers, sheltered bays, and open Lake Superior coastline ranging from beginner-friendly flatwater to demanding open-water crossings.
