Negwegon State Park is an undeveloped state park in Alcona County, Michigan. It covers 2,469 acres (999 ha) with a long sand beach on Lake Huron. The sand road that cuts through the forest and leads to the entrance of the park may require a 4WD vehicle. At the boundary between private/county land and state land, the thin sand two-track road, Sand Hill Wilds Road, becomes a very wide groomed gravel road, Negwegon Park Road. There are 11.6 miles (19 km) of hiking trails in the park. The park is open to hunting (for deer, turkey, rabbit, woodcock, duck, goose and squirrel). Metal detecting is allowed on part of the beach but finds must be inspected by staff.
