Lovely walk, quiet & peaceful as I looked for beautiful rocks along the shore. Can picnic there & worth the stop to see the rugged beauty this area has to offer.

My Suomi college room mate from 1978-80 and I backpacked in to Montreal Falls the first week of September 2020. We spent 3 days camped on the cliff edge where we listened to Lake Superior waves and the Montreal Falls. It's about a mile hike to the falls, but you hike along the cliffs of Lake Superior and through a magnificent forest. The hike can be a minor challenge with roots, muddy areas and a couple of near cliff edge walks. The lower falls are outstanding, we suggest finding a perch in the falls and just enjoy the view while looking out to Lake Superior or looking into the forest You can day hike into the lower falls, plan for 4 hours, bring water and snacks. There isn't a "parking lot" and your car is going to get a little dirt on the tires. Also, suggest hiking the Bare Bluff (Russell and Miriam Grinnell Memorial Nature Sanctuary) which is on the way in to Montreal Falls

An army outpost that kept order in this wilderness outpost in the 1840s.

It was late in the evening when we arrived in Copper Harbor but popped by the Fort anyway, assuming it would be locked up for the night, but at least we could take a peek. We were pleasantly surprised that everything was still open! Love that they have late hours in the summer. The Fort really was a step back in time. The self guided tour allowed us to take our time in the areas that really interested our children. Beautiful setting, amazing history, and an ice cream shop with hand made waffle cones and hand dipped ice cream made for the perfect end to a long day of seeing sights.

We’ve been up here before, and it truly does not disappoint. If you go for sunset, arrive early for your spot, bring chairs, snacks, blanket as it can get cold and a camera for sure. We went twice this visit, one early evening and it was a zoo, people looking for spots to park, second visit was mid afternoon on a beautiful, but windy day. We had more time to enjoy without all the people walking around looking for the right picture angle. The mountain has two drives one headed towards Eagle Harbor, one towards Copper Harbor, this one is the cool twisty one and has a great overlook about half way, City of Copper Harbor and beyond, really a gorgeous view, don’t pass this by!
