‪A friend invited me to do a winter hike on Park Point. It was a clear, sunny, albeit windy, day. The trail starts behind the hangars for the adjacent small airport. Much of the trail, which was quite well worn in for winter, is through wooded areas until you get near the end towards the channel. At the end of the trail, you can walk out to the break water (we didn't, too windy) or just overlook the channel and see Wisconsin across the way. Our trip in and out (not a loop but back again on the same trail) was a total of 4.19 miles. Doing this hike will take you past the Zero Point Lighthouse Ruins, the site of the first lighthouse in Minnesota. I would definitely go back in more moderate weather and try this one along the beach!‬

‪Nice beach‬

العائلة • أغسطس 2020

‪The sand on this beach is sooo soft and wonderful, but the large amount of drift wood makes it difficult to take a barefoot walk on. The water of Lake Superior is cold, and this area is a bit warmer than other parts of the shoreline, but it's still colder than the water of the average lake. That said, if you're looking for a place to enjoy the sun and explore the shore of Lake Superior, this is a nice spot to do it! The parking lot is in some desperate need of repair, so be aware when entering or exiting of the extremely large potholes. We did not walk any of the other trails during this visit. ‬

‪Sandy beaches!‬

يوليو 2020

‪The sandy Park Point beaches are great for a different aspect of the lake. There are a few access points along the road and a large park area at the end of the point. The facilities and grounds there seem a bit run down, but the area is worth a visit. Go on a day when the weather is less-than-perfect and you might find it deserted like we did. We were not aware of a trail, but that would certainly interest us on a future trip.‬

‪Beautiful‬

يونيو 2020

‪Beautiful area - very much worth exploring, especially when weather is good. This area is "under siege" from the lake, which is gradually encroaching on the area. It is stunning and very much worth seeing - kids can enjoy walking here, tip toeing into lake that typically is quite cold.‬

‪Great beaches‬

يونيو 2020

‪It's a horrible shame that an airport sits at the end of the road. Otherwise it's a tiny sandbar with so many nice beaches and places to walk. If Duluth had a nude beach, I'm sure it would be somewhere on this very expansive sandbar. Some parts are very remote and quiet - so much that you could probably get away with camping on the beach.‬

‪Very nice trails but a bit hard to navigate‬

أغسطس 2019

‪There is a gravel road that leads away from the little airport but it’s unclear if this is the trail since there is very little signage. After walking a ways down the road I headed off the road and found a sandy trail, which is very easy to follow but there is A LOT of poison ivy so do not take this trail unless you are dressed properly. Further down the road you come to a tall chain link gate that prevents you progressing further. To the left of this is a more forested trail, which is beautiful and has far less poison ivy. The sandy paths can be accessed by this trail as well. The sandy trails eventually lead down to a quaint lighthouse. This is a nice walk for able-bodied people who don’t mind navigating when the sand paths veer or appear to end.‬

‪Beautiful beach and different view of the lake and bay‬

مايو 2019

‪I love driving down the point and hiking around the beach here. It gives you a different perspective of the lake, and has great areas for families to hang out and have a beach day. ‬

‪A chilly beautiful beach‬

الأصدقاء • مايو 2019

‪We drove up and saw hundreds of seagulls, all evenly spaced from each other on the large grass area in the park. It was fun to run toward them so they flew up and then re-landed in the same configuration. The park has free parking. The trail is along the shore of the lake. The wind off the lake keeps one cool on the hike but a dip in the water on a hot day will cool hikers even faster.‬

‪Very nice!!! ‬

مايو 2019

‪Drove down from our hotel to Park Point to put my feet in the cold water of Lake Superior ! It’s a nice little place with area to picnic , play volleyball, and has access to the lake. We did not drive all the way to the little airport , but were told today that if you continue to it there is a great nature trail to the end of the point! We didn’t know about that when we went ! If you like nature you will enjoy this place ! The beach had lots of driftwood and rocks ! So glad we went! ‬
