Between Lake Superior and Lake Michigan, Wisconsin, though very rural, finds its tourist appeal in its hundreds of kilometers of coastline where beautiful landscapes meet beaches and hiking trails. Like the northern parts of neighboring states Minnesota and Michigan, the upper region of Wisconsin has become a favorite among the public (overwhelmingly North American) for all things related to outdoor tourism. This is most evident in Door County, the vast peninsula jutting into Lake Michigan.
