Hiking Caribou Falls

Caribou Falls is an approximately 1-mile out-and-back hike, off of MN-61 between Tettegouche and Temperance State Parks. This is a subtly marked hike, meaning that although it is just a short distance away from the scenic highway that runs along Lake Superiors shore, you just might get to enjoy this waterfall by yourself. Enjoy the peacefulness of the Caribou River along your hike to the falls.

Why I Hike

Planning a Trip to the North Shore

Exploring Grand Portage, Minnesota

Exploring Grand Portage, Minnesota

Although Grand Portage is a 2 hour and 40 minute drive from Duluth and there are plenty of other things to do and places to hike along MN-61 before you reach the Canadian border, there are two parks bearing the name “Grand Portage” and there is enough to do up here to make the trip worth the effort. In the summer months, the Depot Area inside of Grand Portage NM is open, and there are people dressed in costume performing tasks that show what life was like in the region in the 1780s. Grand Portage State Park has the highest waterfall in Minnesota, which is amazing in any season, and is easily accessible along a paved trail.
