HAP

Hunting Access Program

Michigan's Hunting Access Program was created in 1977 to increase public hunting opportunities in southern Michigan, where 97 percent of the land is privately owned. It expanded to include the NE Lower & E Upper Peninsulas. HAP is one of the oldest private lands public access programs in the nation 

About Us

What does hap provide?

HAP provides access to quality private hunting lands focusing on agricultural regions and disease management areas. Providing more hunting opportunities is critical for attracting new and retaining current hunters and supporting Michigan’s strong hunting tradition. 


HAP provides financial incentives to private landowners who allow hunters access to their lands. Using funds from a USDA/VPA-HIP federal grant, the DNR has significantly expanded the number of acres and properties available within the HAP program. 

HAP Rules

Please see the Michigan Hunting Digest for more information about program rules. 

HAP lands are privately owned lands for which the landowners have agreed to allow public access. All hunters are responsible for knowing and understanding the rules of the program, as well as the rules of each property and state and federal regulations. Please treat these privately owned lands with respect and observe the following:

  • You must follow all individual landowner rules described in the hunter registration folder located at the HAP property and stated in the online property listing on this website.
  • Hunting is the ONLY activity allowed on HAP lands. HAP lands are not open from June 1st through August 31st. Scouting is permitted up to 2 weeks before the hunt season.
  • You must register whenever you access HAP lands at the property headquarters or hunter registration box.
  • You are only allowed to hunt species listed under “Hunt Types” for each individual property, as stated in the online list of HAP properties found on this website.
  • You are only allowed to hunt during the seasons listed for each individual property, as stated in the online list of HAP properties found on this website.
  • Driving on HAP lands is banned unless you have landowner permission.
  • Do not block drives or lanes—Park in a designated area when provided by the landowner.
  • The use of ORVs is prohibited without the landowner's permission.
  • Hunting in or damaging standing crops is banned.
  • Use of permanent blinds, tree stands, or nails/screws in trees is prohibited. Only non-permanent blinds are permitted and must be removed when you leave. 
  • Clean up after yourself; No littering allowed.
  • All rules and regulations enforced by the DNR still apply while hunting on HAP lands.

Mi-Hunt

Mi-HUNT shows approximate boundaries of lands open to public hunting, including public hunting land and private land open to the public for hunting. It contains up-to-date information to help you plan your next hunting trip, including ground cover types, nearby recreational facilities, trails, and more.
