Tahquamenon Falls is 8 miles west of Paradise.  The Upper Falls is 8 miles west of the Lower Falls. These are scenic and very interesting.  It has Family Fun written all over it.  This is also about the warnings you might have to take into consideration.  HAVE FUN.

   The Lower Falls:

The Lower Falls go around an island.  You can walk around the island on a trail built so you can walk around the island and also look at the falls.  It took us 20 minutes to walk around the whole island and take pictures so it's a pretty small island.  You take a rowboat over to the island.  My friend, her dad, and I rowed a boat over to the island.  The water isn't very deep here but you still need to take heed and watch your step and stay on the trail.  The current is sort of strong so at any time if you don't watch out you could be swept away. The water has sort of a yellowish color because of the dirt and other material that could be in the water or rocks.  The water leaves a marshmallow looking foam at the bottom.
 

    The Upper falls:

The Upper Falls look more like falls in my mind then the lower falls do because they have more of a falling action.  The lower falls kind of escalate down so they look more like stairs then falls.  The rock that is around the falls is in layers and it looks really cool because it's just like thousands and thousands of layers. The upper falls has somewhat of a scenic viewing area.  It also has many trails. You can take the main trail or some of the wonderful nature trails.  The nature trails walk you through the woods and give you some information.  There are informational signs as you walk along that give you details about the upper falls.  They even have a sign for how many stairs there are and the precautions you should talk walking up and down it if you have a handicap or any illness that doing so would cause you pain.  The current in the upper falls is also strong but much stronger then the lower falls.
