Great Lakes: On the map
What borders what?
The Great Lakes are in North America, straddling the border of both the United States and Canada. View a continental perspective of the Great Lakes. If you stood on the moon, you could see the lakes and recognize the familiar wolf head shape of Lake Superior, or the mitten bounded by lakes Michigan, Huron and Erie.
Lake Superior is bordered by the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and the province of Ontario.
Lake Michigan is the only lake that is fully contained within the United States, bordered by Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and Indiana.
Lake Huron is bordered by the state of Michigan and the province of Ontario.
Lake Erie is bordered by the states of Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York and the province of Ontario.
Lake Ontario is bordered by the state of New York and the province of Ontario.
The St. Lawrence River is not a Great Lake, but is an important part of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence system, leading to the Atlantic Ocean. The St. Lawrence River is bordered by the state of New York and the provinces of Ontario and Québec.
