This is a great hike with stairways up the mountain. And there is a great view from the top. Brish Mountain is a bit more secluded but both have great views. Well worth visiting. More

The experience of walking up is wonderful itself. But the reward of the view once you reach the top is very sweet. Try it in color season while using one of Michigan.org's color tours that winds you from Alger County's Hiawatha National Forest, past Sugarloaf and onto Big Bay. More

The path is very easy to walk, but also has resting spots along the way. When you reach the top you can see the islands in Lake Superior and the sites of Marquette, Michigan More

This is a great little mountain! It's a good hike up but the trails are very clear. So beautiful! And the view up on the top is amazing! Over all it should be an easy hike. There are only a few steep areas. More

Well worth the time and effort. We took the "difficult" path up although it wasn't bad at all. The view from the top is breathtaking and invigorating! Don't miss this! More

I can't imagine visiting Marquette and not going to Sugarloaf. It's only a few miles west of this small town. A bit difficult to find so get good directions. Once you can get to County Road 550, you can just go a few miles until you see the fairly large wooden sign and the parking lot (on your right when... More

Take the time to make this hike - the views are amazing! It's a short hike but with a number of wooden stairs. More
