While many of us have experienced Michigan’s prettiest attractions from the ground, there’s something utterly magical about checking them out from above. Beautiful drone videos of our favorite destinations allow us to see them from rarely-seen vantage points, whether we’re gazing at Lake Michigan shorelines or appreciating boundless forests. All the natural wonders in Michigan just look so different from up in the air! If you want to see the Great Lakes State from way up high, check out these seven drone videos of Michigan; each is an amazing aerial tour of Michigan that will let you see the region in a whole new way.
