A National Scenic RiverIn July 1978 the Pere Marquette River was designated a National Wild and Scenic River, the first in Michigan. The river wanders gently across the central Michigan landscape; alternately hidden in the forested shadows and then opening up into the sinuous floodplains in its lower reaches. The river is the longest river system in the Lower Peninsula without dams or impoundments.
