Best Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Day Trips & Things to Do

The lakeshore includes some 15 miles of cliffs along its 42-mile length. Unlike any other place on Lake Superior, Pictured Rocks offers towering multicolored sandstone cliffs, miles of sparkling beaches, dashing waterfalls, huge sand dunes, inland lakes and streams, deep green forests... and it's all yours to explore! Within the park, nearly 100 miles of trail lead to remote trout streams, hidden bogs, wild Lake Superior beaches, and a system of 14 backcountry campsites. Hues of orange, red, and yellow signal the wonder of change in autumn.
