Discover Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

Multicolored sandstone cliffs, beaches, sand dunes, waterfalls, inland lakes, streams, forests and wildlife comprise this scenic area on Lake Superior. Activities include sightseeing, camping, kayaking, backpacking, hiking, fishing, hunting, picnicking, boating, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, a maritime museum, a lighthouse and a visitor's center. Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore stands out among the rest as having a reputation for being one of the most spectacular parks to give ice climbing a go — whether you are a novice or an experienced climber. Dogs on a leash no longer than six feet are allowed on Miners Beach.

Due to site restoration efforts, Light Station tours will not be entering the Light Station tower or keeper's quarters until further notice.  We will still be offering free grounds tours at our regular tour times and the free museum will be open 11 am - 5 pm Wednesday through Sunday. The Light Station grounds are always open and free for you to explore on your own as well!
