Northern Minnesota is home to the famous Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness - the largest canoeing wilderness in the United States. There are over 1,000 clear water lakes in this million-plus acre wilderness. The Gunflint Trail (a 60-mile paved road) is in the Laurentian Highlands, with hundreds of deep rocky lakes scoured out by the glaciers
centuries ago. Some of the waters flow to the Atlantic and some to the Arctic. This area has the finest lake trout fishing in mid-America and is home to a significant moose population.

The Gunflint Trail area offers a variety of disbursed canoe entry points, so canoeists can get into the wilderness quickly and without going down long and busy entry lakes. In addition, you have the scenic beauty of the North Shore Drive along Lake Superior as you come north to the Gunflint from Minneapolis/St. Paul or Duluth.
