Photo © Jessica Gabriel At the BeachThe park has a few beach locations that are easy to access with nearby parking. Depending on your lodging location and length of stay, look to visit Sand Point Beach, Miners Beach, or Twelvemile Beach all found on the park map.
At a WaterfallThe best waterfall to visit with young children is Munising Falls. It is a short, paved trail that is approximately 800 feet to the waterfall and meanders along and over Munising Creek.

Please remember to teach your young ones to be kind to all living things, to stay on the trail, and to leave all natural items as found so that other visitors can enjoy them too. At Home or At SchoolThere are a variety of early childhood resources below to use in your home or at your school if you are unable to visit Pictured Rocks. Come discover the park through stories told by rangers or play and learn right beside them. You can also download coloring pages that are drawings of places or things found here in the park.
