A spur trail off of the Superior Hiking Trail, the Oberg Mountain Loop Trail is a 2.6-mile very popular and well-used loop trail with a trailhead near Tofte, Minnesota. This moderately challenging trail runs primarily through large, mature forests. Nine overlooks offer wonderful views of Lake Superior, Moose Mountain, and Oberg Lake, with the North Shore Sawtooth backcountry in the background. The trail starts with a few mild switchbacks that lead on an easy loop to the top of the 1,000-foot Oberg Mountain, with steep cliffs at the top. With rock ledges and cliffs along the way, keep an eye on the kids. Dogs on a leash are also allowed on this trail.
