A long hike with lots of stairs, north of Grand Marais. The falls at the end are worth the walk. Stop at Naniboujou Lodge for high tea afterwards.

The High Falls on Pigeon River hike is spectacular, especially during the winter. It's right next to the Canadian Border, an hour and 15 minute drive.

Canoe Rental

Great place to rent a canoe for a boundary waters day trip or more. It's the last stop at the end of the Sawbill Trail.

Mountain Bike Trails

The Jackpot Trail out of Britton Peak rivals any in the state. Take it out and back or all the way to Lutsen if you can have a car at both ends.

Grand Marais has plenty of great restaurants. This one is our 'go to' because you can always get a table. Probably because the name does not describe the place well. They have great wood fired pizzas, a fabulous upstairs deck, and cozy inside dining when it's cold.
