Free Fishing, ORV Riding, and State Park Entry in Michigan

That means you can fish all weekend without buying a fishing license, ride Michigan's ORV trails without purchasing an ORV license or trail permit, and visit any Michigan state park without needing a Recreation Passport. Yes, it's all free.

It's all about spending the day on the water, hitting the trails, or just packing a cooler and hanging out at one of Michigan's state parks. If you're looking for something different to do this weekend, it's a pretty good excuse to get the family outside without spending a bunch of money.

What Is Included During Michigan's Three Free Weekend?

Of course, all regular fishing regulations and ORV laws still apply, but the entry fees and permit costs are waived for the weekend.

Michigan's "Three Free" Weekend runs Friday, June 13, through Saturday, June 14. Whether you're an avid outdoorsman or just looking for something fun and affordable to do, it's hard to beat free.
