Over 200 miles of trails from Duluth, Minn., to Canada.

Reviewed By TravelingSoccerLoon - Saint Paul, United States

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.

Viewing point from the Superior Hiking Trail.

We where there 11/15/19 and the road to the overlook was closed for the season. We walked the road up to the overlook as so many others did that day, the weather was beautiful (38 degrees and sunny) for a fall day. At the top the view was beautiful with the sun shinning on the lake. Was totally worth the morning walk for the view at the top.

Muskie Doom Guide Service

Muskie Doom Guide Service is your home for inland fishing adventure along the North Shore of Lake Superior! We especially cater to anglers looking to put that first muskie in the boat, whether you're an avid panfish, bass or walleye angler who is thinking about taking the leap to muskies, or if you've got a teenager who is crazy about fishing but is looking for a bigger challenge. We love watching an angler catch his or her first muskie just as much as we like catching them ourselves. With our trips, it's all about you. We don't fish alongside you ... it's your show and we just watch and give instructions! We now offer guided rainbow trout trips as well. These are action-oriented trips that are perfect for kids. We also offer bass, panfish and pike trips and are looking to expand, with Lake Superior fishing in the near future. Need a North Shore guide? We can put together many other kinds of trips, including fall color tours, moose viewing excursions or other unique trips.

Reviewed By amyfW3484RV

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!

Split Rock Lighthouse

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.

Reviewed By EGRap - Missouri City, United States

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.

Stoney Point

Reviewed By darnmike2018 - Two Harbors, United States

My husband I like to visit Stoney when Lake Superior is stormy!! The large waves crashing against the rocks is magnificent... in the winter..the ice crystals on the nearby trees is haunting...a small little road on the old 61 highway leads to this place right on the lake is hard to find, so ask locals how to get there!
