Winter Trails are open December 15th to April 15th
(dependent on snow)

The winter trails are a mix of open areas and forested terrain and offer views of Brockway Mountain and Lake Superior.  Our snowshoe routes are maintained for our cabin guests. As a cabin guest, you can bring your own snowshoes or borrow a pair from the Lodge.

A winter trail pass and a signed and initialed waiver is required by all lodging guests that use the winter trails on the Lodge property.

The Adventurer Snowshoe Route winds through the woods and across open areas.

Adventurer Snowshoe Route

The Adventurer Snowshoe Route is great for the first time snowshoer and families looking for a fun adventure. The route is conveniently located right outside the cabins and is a mix of wooded terrain and open spaces. Along the trail you will discover geologic formations, historic architecture and scenic views.  Our team packs this route after every fresh snow. Check our Winter Trail Condition page for updates.

Explorer Snowshoe Route

The Explorer Snowshoe Route explores the Garden Brook watershed and offers a more remote experience away from the Lodge. Along the route snowshoers will discover views of the Brockway Mountain ridge line, a cedar forest and some large white pines along the valley floor. There are many bridges that add an adventuresome element to this hike. We only pack this trail once in a while to let users have a fresh snow experience after a winter storm.
