Take the trail that winds along
the edge of the Temperance River gorge and enjoy the
rushing waterfalls surrounded by pine, spruce, cedar and birch
forests. The rapidly flowing river has cut deep potholes in and along
the riverbed. Hike the trail to Hidden Falls or connect up with trails
into the Superior National Forest and the Cross River Wayside.
Visitors come to camp and picnic along the shore of Lake Superior.
Winter brings cross-country skiers and snowmobilers to tackle the
hilly terrain. Carlton Peak, a recent addition to the park, is popular
with rock climbers and offers even more recreational opportunities to
park visitors.
