Overlanding, by definition, is vehicle-dependent travel where the journey is the destination. What makes overlanding unique from other types of adventuring is the ability to leave home for days or weeks at a time, and not necessarily feel like you left home. Overlanding combines the best elements of various outdoor activities. Vehicle-dependent, self-sufficiency checks the box for most people who enjoy camping, traveling to remote places, and having the ability to carry the necessary gear to get off-road and enjoy nature.

Michigan Overland is a community of like-minded adventurers in pursuit of that definition and more. Our primary goal is to build and grow Michigan’s overlanding and adventuring community.
