In the middle of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, a riverside hub for outdoor learning is tucked between Detroit and Traverse City. The Chippewa Nature Center welcomes guests to explore and interact with some of Michigan's most active habitats. Standing where the Pine and Chippewa Rivers meet, this thriving nature center offers scenic river views that can be found indoors, outdoors, and while paddling on their waters. Located in Midland, Chippewa Nature Center is a convenient stop for those road tripping through the interior of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. Those flying into the area should consider MBS International Airport, which is located approximately 20 minutes from the nature center.
