Most visitor services for Keweenaw National Historical Park are provided through the park's partners, known as Keweenaw Heritage Sites. Hours and days of operation at these sites vary with the season: check the park newspaper for hours and days of operations for the heritage sites. Most of the sites close for the winter by late October and reopen for the summer in late May. Contact the Keweenaw Convention and Visitors Bureau at (888) 646-6784 for specific details.

Summer and early fall are the primary seasons for visiting the Keweenaw Peninsula, particularly from Memorial Day to the end of the Fall color season in mid October. Winter activities such as snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing are popular from late November through the end of March. Most of the Keweenaw Heritage Sites are closed during the winter.
