Urbex Map Michigan – 266 Abandoned Places GPS Map

The Urbex Map Michigan is a GPS-ready abandoned places map for urban explorers, photographers, filmmakers, and location researchers. It organizes 266 Michigan abandoned locations into a downloadable KML/KMZ file built for Google Earth and Google My Maps.

This map gives you a structured starting point for scouting and route planning instead of relying only on scattered forum posts or outdated coordinates.

Use every point as a research lead only. Access, ownership, conditions, and local rules can change, so always verify legality and safety before visiting any abandoned place.
