Hiked a short segment of the SHT north of Tettegouche State Park to Tower Overlook this Fall. 3 mile out and back segment. Only encountered 2 other hikers the entire time on the trail. Would love to explore more of the trail with some backpacking in the future. The trail stretches 200 miles from Duluth up to Canada.

Split Rock Lighthouse State Park is a true gem. There are a lot of trails for hiking and our family favorite is pebble beach. We bring our chairs and let the kids skip rocks into the water while we enjoy the beautiful views of Lake Superior. If you hike to the big rocks on the shore you can even catch some fantastic views of Split Rock Lighthouse!
3. Split Rock Lighthouse
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,055 reviews
Shipwrecks from a mighty 1905 November gale prompted this rugged landmark's construction. Completed by the U.S. Lighthouse Service in 1910, Split Rock Light Station soon became one of Minnesota's best known landmarks. Restored to its 1920s appearance, the light station offers a glimpse of lighthouse life in this remote and spectacular setting. Split Rock Lighthouse is a National Historic Landmark.

We really found this lighthouse a majestic beauty that helped us really appreciate the history of the North Shore and Lake Superior. We enjoyed the overview of the Lighthouse but listening to others we were a bit reluctant to walk to the shore to get a better view. It was a really easy walk down and back up and we were really glad we did it because that little distance gave us such a beautiful view of the lighthouse.

Great spot along the North Shore with a short hike to see the Middle and High Falls of the Gooseberry River. Probably the most popular spot along the North shore so expect crowds.

Good view of the Lake walking out on the jetty to the beacon. Good spot for just hanging out. We didn’t take a tour of the lighthouse, though we are interested in staying in the B&B at a future visit. Loved the gift shop with books written by regional experts on previously unknown, eccentric aspects of Great Lakes life. Other great gifts too.
6. Castle Danger Brewery
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 240 reviews
The North Shore of Lake Superior is a special place. It’s the crash of the waves on the rocky shores, an outdoor adventure in the woods, seeing the stars, sitting by a campfire, being at the cabin, casting a line, a scenic drive with the family, or visiting your favorite taproom overlooking Lake Superior. The nostalgia runs deep and the origins are endless. The experience is unique to you, yet for all to enjoy. Our beers are clean, balanced and approachable. They are brewed with Lake Superior water by hearty souls that embody the North Shore. Wherever or whenever you enjoy a Castle Danger beer, you can taste a little bit of the North Shore in every sip.

We stopped to take time away from the ice-storm upon us and were happy we did! They have many games to play and an inviting atmosphere. We sat at a high top and played cribbage while enjoying some of their famous beers (e.g. Cream ale; IPA). You order at the bar (only)/cash-register. We also had some of their "Wicked" salsa and blue chips ($9) - Worth it! I will be purchasing some online (salsa). BUT... it is not an extensive menu - just a few little snacks. The staff were very warm and encouraging.

We stumbled on this location while trying to see the Edgar B. Speer come I to the docking area to unload the iron ore. What a special treat it was to see the Tadoussac leaving and the Speer coming in. The views are amazing to be able to watch the freighters come in. You can park and watch or get out and walk along the nice sidewalks or even go out on the point to see the freighters up close. We had been in Duluth at Canal Poi t and watched the freighters coming and going under the aerial lift bridge and that was nice...but this was very special as it July 4th and there were fireworks going off around while the boat was getting into position to moor. This is a great place to see the freighters if you are a boat nerd or just coming to check it out for the first time!
