It's the land.

Duluth’s rugged terrain invites exploration at every turn.

The Superior Hiking Trail stretches 300 miles from Jay Cooke State Park to the Canadian border, staying close to Lake Superior’s shores. For bikers, Duluth’s Gold-Level Ride Center offers world-class mountain biking trails, one of only six in the world with this designation. It’s land built for adventure, where every trail leads to something unforgettable.
