Gunflint Trail Campgrounds FAQ Gunflint Trail Campgounds: Camping on the Gunflint Trail is the perfect way to immerse yourself in Minnesota's north woods. Experience the sights, sounds, and scents of the forested wilderness. Hike over the hills, boat and canoe countless lakes (many with public boat launches), pull up the RV or pitch a tent in a campground by a lake or river (scenic lakeshore sites with hook-ups are available), listen to the birds, and watch the wildlife. Enjoy the vacation of a lifetime - and return again and again. Sit back and relax as you watch bald eagles soar overhead, fish jump and fall back into the lake (or, perhaps onto your line for a delicious dinner!), and let the glow from your campfire kindle memories to linger a lifetime. You and your family and friends are invited to experience this unspoiled world. Your hosts eagerly await the chance to share its beauty and recreational opportunities with you.

The Gunflint Trail is a two-lane asphalt highway. From Grand Marais to the end is approximately 57 miles. Secondary roads to some campgrounds might be Class 5 hard-packed gravel. How close together are the campsites? The Gunflint Trail is on the edge of the largest Federal Wilderness in the lower 48 states. While you may be able to see other campers, you enjoy a high degree of privacy thanks to many trees and vegetation. Are there campsites along a lake? Lake frontage campsites are available at some campgrounds. Some offer electrical and water hook-ups. These sites, however, are limited and in high demand. Reservations are highly recommended. Can I make reservations for a particular campsite? Sure. All the private campgrounds on the Gunflint Trail take reservations. Make sure you understand deposit requirements and cancellation policies before you place your deposit. What activities are available? The Gunflint Trail offers families and individuals a multitude of outdoor activities. These include: hiking, fishing, swimming, boating, canoeing, wildlife photography, nature crafts, birding, plus much, much more. Are the bugs bad? There's a time for every season. This includes bugs. June and July does have bug activity. However, many factors determine how many and for how long. Today's repellents and common sense allow us to enjoy the outdoors any time during these months. Early May, late July, August, and September have little or no bug activity. Can I bring a large motor home? Many campers bring motor homes in excess of 36'. Naturally there are some places that are inaccessible, but, on the whole, there are campsites large enough for most sizes of rigs. It's important to contact the campground of your choice to determine if the larger sites are available. What amenities are available? Campgrounds offer a variety of amenities. Contact the campground of your choice for details. |
