This region on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, called the Copper Country, was a promised land for hundreds of thousands of immigrants — German, Italian, Cornish, French-Canadian and Finnish — who called this place home during the copper mining days. 

Today the area has grown and developed and offers a  historical park, mine tours, gift shops, pubs and restaurants, some dating back to the mining days.  Plenty of  outdoor activities along with exploring the area via hiking and biking trails.  A photographer’s haven with so many breathtaking views.

Lake Superior offers any beach lover a day of swimming or other water activity as well as agate picking along the shores followed by a gorgeous sunset in the evening.  

The Copper Country is certainly unique and Five Elements Integrative Therapy Academy focuses on this area and how it relates to the five elements of nature.
