Welcome
Hiawatha National Forest
The Hiawatha offers visitors access to underdeveloped shores of three of America's
great inland seas: Lakes Superior, Michigan, and Huron. The lakeshores' are
home for many sensitive plants and animals; our interpretive programs help visitors
understand the need to "tread lightly" while enjoying their beaches.
People driving the Great Lakes Circle Tour can explore the Whitefish Bay National
Forest Scenic Byway along Superior's south shore; while campers find accommodation-from
developed to primitive-on all three Great Lakes shorelines. The North Country
National Scenic Trail brings hikers beside Superior's sandy beaches, and boaters
find access to all three Hiawatha Great Lakes.
