The surprise on the Superior Coast, (The Lake Superior Coast) is the town of Grand Marais. It’s a town that would remind you of a Washington State coastal town like Port Angeles or a hint of Ely, Minnesota with the combination of ruggedness and leisure tourism. Grab your bike and ride down the coast on part of the Gitchi-Gami Trail. You’ll find waterfalls and maybe even some bikers going to the Vikings game at the local tavern.

A true gem if a restaurant is located just North of Grand Marais at a lodge called Naniboujou. With the stone backed fireplace the main room for breakfast or dinner is like taking a step into The Game of Thrones set or even an old Viking dinner room.
