Hiking & Biking

Hiking and biking are two of the best ways to experience the beauty of the North Shore!  From scenic lakeside walking trails to the world-famous Superior Hiking Trail and the fantastic trail systems within our state parks, there is truly something for everyone.

Sonju Trail

Looking for a relaxing stroll or bike ride with scenic lakeside views? The Sonju Trail in Two Harbors is a ‘must-do!’ This partially paved trail runs along the shore of Lake Superior for approximately one mile, between Burlington and Agate Bays. Along the trail, you will find gorgeous lake views, beautiful wooded areas, picnic spots, wildlife, and spur trails to smaller beaches! Access and parking for this trail may be found at either Agate or Burlington Bays or parking is available at the RJ Houle Information Center, on Highway 61 near Burlington Bay.

Uptown Trail

This paved trail runs through the uptown area of Two Harbors, beginning at Lakeview National Golf Course. On this trail, you’ll find the best of both worlds on different parts of the trail: picturesque wooded areas and quaint small-town city sights. There is no designated trailhead but parking is available at the RJ Houle Information Center on Highway 61, across from Lakeview National Golf Course.

Plan an extended trip and bring your tent or take a day trip or one of the shorter loops!
