About Upper Black Lake

Surrounded by an acre of water and picturesque forest, it has become a popular holiday destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Black Lake is one of the most beautiful lakes in the state of Michigan, USA, and the second largest lake in Michigan.

Visitors seeking year-round recreation come to northeastern Michigan to test their ability to swim in the sparkling waters and explore the beautiful landscape. It was not until the mid to late 19th century that limestone mining and logging attracted settlers to the Schwarzsee, but they were the first to settle there and trade. Today, tourism and leisure activities around the Black Lake and its surroundings, as well as other lakes and rivers, form a large part of the region's economic base.

Black Lake is Michigan's eighth largest lake, covering 10,130 hectares and gets its name from the dark color of the water, which is due to natural tannins from native plants. Don't be fooled by the color, Black Lake is known for sturgeon fishing that thrives at depths of up to 50 feet.

The northern end of the Black Lake is an area dominated by weed beds, but stretches to the northwest and southeast. The Upper Black River flows from the western side of the Black Lake and forms the largest tributary of the Black River Divide.

The deepest basin is at the southern end, where additional tributaries such as the Upper Black River, the Lower Black Lake and the Southern Lake increase the average depth of the Black Lake by more than 20 meters. At its deepest point it flows from north to south and has a total length of about 1,500 meters.

The Black Sea has long been known as one of the most important waters in the Black Sea region of Russia. In the 1920s, when the number of disturbances at the lake was decreasing, the Black Sea Association was founded to document its environment and maintain excellent water quality.

Today the association observes the Black Lake by additional vegetation and shore surveys. Troublemakers of tomorrow Volunteers stand guard to stop illegal harvests, and through voluntary commitments, the organisation is helping to ensure that the sturgeon of BlackLake has a promising future.

The sturgeon-spear fishing season usually begins on the first Saturday in February and ends with the first place of the five sturgeon caught. Those who have a fishing license and a StURgeon fishing trailer must fish this unique season in Black Lake. A lottery selects 25 anglers for the season, which ends at any time of day, depending on success.

Besides sturgeon, the lake is also home to a number of other fish species, such as trout, salmon, trout and whale, and fishing is plentiful. The 158-hectare park has a paved beach for boaters and kayakers, picnics and overnight stays along a 3-km nature trail that invites you to cross the country. The 19-mile coastline can be explored by boaters and fishing is plentiful (for more information, see the link below).

The recreational area of the Black Forest is located at the northern end of the Schwarzsee and offers more adventure for outdoor enthusiasts. A rustic campsite hidden among white pine trees on the lakeside, it also houses a number of hiking trails and picnic areas.

Horse riding is also allowed on the marked trails and trails that lead through the forest, and the trails are open in the winter months. There are also a number of hiking trails and horse riding trails on the 60 km of hiking trails. The high altitude of the Black Forest and the proximity to the lake make hunting and game watching a popular pastime.

The community of Onaway, dubbed the "sturgeon capital of Michigan," hosts the annual Black Lake Shivaree. Drive five miles south of Black Lake and you will reach the community by road and drive to the lake.

The February Festival is a festival of winter activities for all ages, including snowshoeing, ice skating, snowmobiling, sledding, skiing and snowboarding, and ice fishing.

Visitors to Onaway and Black Lake will find plenty of opportunities to explore Michigan's natural wonders. Drive 15 miles south and you will reach an area of dry sinkholes that is now filled with trees and native plants. Take an autumn trip to the Black Forest and camp in the State Forest Park or head to Lake Superior State Park, a popular hiking, camping and fishing destination. The scenic beauty of the lake, the picturesque view and the natural beauty make it a year-round recreational destination.

Mullett Lake is a 40-mile inland waterway that runs through the community of Cheboygan, located south of Lake Superior State Park on the east side of the state. MullettLake is known for its fishing and fishing activities as well as its natural beauty. The shores of Mullet Lake are located at the mouth of Crooked Lake, which flows from the Black River, the largest river in Michigan and the second largest in the United States. Pickerel Lake ends at Lake Huron, one of Michigan's largest freshwater lakes and a popular fishing destination.

Just minutes northwest of the Black Lake, Cheboygan offers a well-kept city centre with a large shopping centre and a range of restaurants, bars and hotels. Black Lake is located on the east side of Lake Superior State Park, just south of the town of Che Boygan.

The natural beauty of this gentle shore area offers residents ideal retreats. Here you will find apartments and estates under pine trees as well as a wide selection of restaurants, bars, shops and restaurants.

Black Lake is waiting for you to come back in spring and summer with its beautiful beaches and scenic views. Get carried away by the tranquility and charm of this destination, away from the bustle of Detroit and toward the tranquility of Black Lake, Michigan.
