When you feel the urge to escape the city and embrace nature, peace, and solitude far from the beaten track, Isle Royal National Park may be just what you need. Isle Royal is a scenic, isolated, and rugged island in Lake Superior that offers adventurers an exceptional back-to-nature experience.

One way to enjoy the splendor is to go backpacking along over 160 miles of scenic trails, sleeping at one of the 36 campsites dotted across the island. You can also enjoy several less strenuous day hikes, explore the many coves and bays by motorized boat, or take to the calmer inland waters for canoeing and kayaking. Scuba diving, guided tours, and ranger-led programs are also available.
