Tours & Rentals
Tours
There’s always something to explore in Cook County.
We will have limited tour offerings this summer, by appointment only. Book your tour here. Please note that online booking is available only with at least one week’s notice. If you are interested in a tour in a closer time frame, please contact us.
Our aim is to connect you to the most memorable experiences and interesting places—from the Superior Hiking Trail (SHT) to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW), Isle Royale National Park, and beyond. We craft our tours to serve a variety of ages and abilities. We hope to empower visitors to connect with the North Shore by foot, boat, snowshoe and ski.
