Hiking & Trekking in Minnesota - The Great Northwoods and Superior Hiking Trail
Conceived in the mid-1980's as a through hiking trail extending from Duluth to the Canadian border, often along the ridgeline overlooking Superior's North Shore, the trail is complete and continuous from Two Harbors to the border, a distance of 204 miles. During the course of the past summer, an additional 30 miles of trail have been completed in the Duluth area, and recent plans include the ultimate extension of the trail to the Wisconsin border.
No, we're not hiking the entire length of the Superior Trail. For the season ahead, our 6-day program will focus on selected segments, capturing much, though certainly not all of the trail's scenic excitement. We'll also strive to convey a significant sense of hiking an extended through trail that many believe rivals, if not surpasses in quality of experience the better-known Appalachian and Pacific Crest Trails.
