Isle Royale National Park is a large wilderness island surrounded by Lake Superior that offers visitors numerous paddling options. The rugged island is heavily forested and is home to a large variety of wildlife and plantlife. The national park is only accessible by boat transport or sea plane, and is completely roadless resulting in less visitors and a remote wilderness experience. This kayaking trip starts from Rock Harbor and travels just south across the channel out to the small and scenic Raspberry Island. On the island there are interpretive trails that provide information regarding the diverse and abundant plantlife and ecology of the area. Be sure to contact the park service regarding ferry service and camping availability/permits when planning your trip out to Isle Royale.
