Tour Two Harbors
THE PERFECT DESTINATION FOR HISTORY, NATURE, AND SMALL-TOWN CHARM
Two Harbors, MN is a beautiful and
quaint town located on the pristine
shores of Lake Superior. Known as the
gateway to the North Shore, Two Harbors
is a great place to stop and enjoy local
food, shopping, lodging, and the many
historical attractions the area has to offer.
If you are a person who loves to be
outdoors, Two Harbors is the perfect destination. Home to some of Minnesota’s
most beautiful State Parks, Two Harbors
offers numerous hiking trails, picnic areas,
camp sites, and scenic attractions like
Gooseberry Falls and Split Rock Lighthouse. There is a reason why the native
Ojibwe people called Two Harbors “a
place to spear the moonlight”. Where
Burlington and Agate Bay meet, Two Harbors offers some of the most untouched,
scenic coastline on Lake Superior.

Seven Wonders of the North
Shore: Cook County, MN
HEAD NORTH ON 61 TO “PLAY TOURIST” AND ENCOUNTER WILD AND SCENIC SURPRISES
Have you really
experienced the
North Shore?
Just an hour and a half from
Duluth on Highway 61, you’ll
enter Cook County, where
seven scenic wonders await
you. Come see why this place
has earned raves from the likes
of Outside Magazine, Budget
Travel Magazine, and National
Geographic.
Cook County includes the
communities of Schroeder,
Tofte, Lutsen, Grand Marais, the
Gunflint Trail and Grand Portage.
This summer, get away (without
having to drive very far). Play
tourist. Explore Cook County
and soak up some of the North
Shore’s most spectacular sights
and experiences.
16 │GREAT SUMMER GETAWAY
Sawtooth Mountain Range
Jagged and ancient, with a distinctive
serrated profile, the Sawtooth Mountain
Range rims the Lake Superior shore. The
Superior Hiking Trail traverses several of
its summits.
The range includes the four peaks of
Lutsen Mountains – in winter, the Midwest’s largest ski area – and serves as a
craggy playground with hiking, mountain
biking, and vistas guaranteed to make
you stop and say “Wow.”
In the summer, Lutsen Mountains offers family-friendly thrills with the Alpine
Slide and scenic rides on the Mountain
Tram. Another family favorite in the area:
biking along the gentle, paved Gitchi-Gami State Trail that parallels the Lake
Superior shore.
Northern Lights
With so much wilderness and so few
sources of light pollution, Cook County is
a photographer favorite for capturing the
aurora borealis, or northern lights.
Caused by geomagnetic storms,
northern lights are a bucket-list favorite.
There's nothing like watching shimmering electric ribbons snake across the sky
to give you perspective on what’s really
important.
Also, what better way to celebrate
your engagement, wedding, honeymoon,
babymoon or anniversary than with a
romantic quest to see the northern lights?
During your visit, ask your lodging
host about the aurora forecast. There are
also a variety of aurora-forecast and alert
services available for your smartphone.
Even if you don't luck out and see the
lights, the sky here is so pure that on
clear nights you can see the spiral arm of
the Milky Way Galaxy.
Moose (and Other Wild Things)
“Where can we go to see a moose?”
This is one of the most frequent
questions asked at the visitor centers in
Cook County. Moose are a Minnesota
icon and an awe-inspiring sight, weighing
up to 900 pounds. The best place to see
a moose, if you’re lucky? The Gunflint
Trail. (Which, FYI, is actually a two-lane
paved road.)
Starting in Grand Marais on the Lake
Superior shore, drive inland on the
Gunflint Trail National Scenic Byway with
your eyes peeled and your camera ready.
Dawn and dusk are the best times for
moose-spotting.
Other wild things you might see in
Up The Shore
Cook County: lynx, fox, black bear, timberwolf, flying squirrel, otter (awww), and
over 155 species of birds. The Audubon
Society named the Superior National Forest one of the world’s “Globally Important Bird Areas.”
High Falls
Why is High Falls sometimes called
“Minnesota’s Niagara”? Imagine a
canyon with a river surging through it.
Sheer basalt walls fringed with forest. A
waterfall stretched from wall to wall, like
a dam. A deafening torrent freight-trains
over the edge. At the base of the falls,
sun glimmers in the spray and arcs up
a rainbow.
At 120 feet, High Falls is the tallest
waterfall in the state. It is located at the
top of the North Shore in Grand Portage
State Park, a scenic 45-minute drive from
Grand Marais.
Families love High Falls because the
walk to the viewing area is short enough
for kids. In summer, a wooden boardwalk
makes High Falls wheelchair- and
stroller-accessible.
Marais Art Colony and North House Folk
School. Check out a cool event.
Festivals, events and live music take
place throughout the summer throughout
the county. Check the event calendar at
visitcookcounty.com/calendar
Scenic Gateway to the
Boundary Waters
Grand Marais
Quirky. Artsy. Historic. Beautiful.
However you describe it, the harbor
village of Grand Marais certainly deserves
the title of “America’s Coolest Small
Town,” which it was recently awarded by
Budget Travel Magazine after winning a
national poll.
Along with breathtaking natural beauty, Grand Marais and the larger Cook
County area are widely known for arts,
history and culture. Explore art galleries,
museums and distinctive shops. Take a
class at the nationally renowned Grand
The Boundary Waters. A pristine wilderness of glacier-born lakes and
vibrant forests. No sirens, no honking,
just birdsong and the savory crackle of
your campfire.
National Geographic named the
Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness
(BWCAW) one of the world’s “50 Places
of a Lifetime.” Whether you paddle for
an afternoon or a week, the Cook County
experience isn’t complete until you’ve
been here.
Make the drive part of the journey by
taking the scenic route to the Boundary
Waters. Take Highway 61 north, following
the Lake Superior shoreline. Access the
Boundary Waters from the town of Tofte,
or continue to the harbor village of Grand
Marais, then turn inland on the Gunflint
Trail. The Gunflint Trail is a 57-mile paved
road that winds through a ruggedly beautiful landscape and ends on the shore of
Lake Saganaga, on the edge of the
Boundary Waters.
Not an outdoor person? One of the
friendly local businesses can set you up
for an easy paddle – or outfit you for an
overnight adventure.
Other Gunflint Trail adventures include
hiking into the past at Chik-Wauk Museum & Nature Center and flying through
the treetops with the Towering Pines
Canopy Tour.
Uncrowded State Parks
Did you know that Grand Portage
State Park – home of “Minnesota’s Niagara” – gets only 1/16th as many visitors as
Gooseberry Falls?
Cook County has four spectacular
and uncrowded state parks, all easily accessible no matter where you’re staying.
(We mentioned Grand Portage State Park
earlier.)
Cascade River State Park features a
breathtaking series of cascading waterfalls. Ample parking and a walking path
make this park easy to explore.
In Temperance River State Park you’ll
peer into a deep, narrow river gorge with
10-15 short drops. A short hiking trail
loop will bring you around the falls.
If you’re up for a heftier hike, head to
Judge C.R. Magney State Park and go
see Devil’s Kettle Falls, which flows into a
mysterious (bottomless?) hole in the rock.

According to Bayfield Chamber and Visitor Bureau Director David Eades, visitors
to the islands “have the opportunity to

present.”
The islands boast pristine crystalline
beaches, towering sandstone cliffs and
spectacular sea caves.

and craftspeople from across the mid-
west who sell their wares in downtown
Memorial Park. Local artists also open
their studios and galleries that weekend,
inviting visitors in and featuring special

overlooking the Apostle Islands. The
venue is hailed as the “Carnegie Hall
of Tent Shows” and was named “Best

the opportunity to learn about Bayfield’s
legends and lore while exploring the

period costume. From the arrival of the
Ojibwe on Madeline Island to the boom
years of big lumber and commercial
fishing, Wisconsin history has left its mark

Museum, the Madeline Island Museum
and the Visitor Center at the Apostle
Islands National Lakeshore Headquarters
