Vacations North of Lake Superior

The Sleeping Giant in Thunder Bay North of Superior Travel Region stretches from the Pigeon River border crossing north to the Albany River; east of White River to English River on the west. Within these boundaries you will find spectacular scenery, pristine fish-filled lakes and rivers, picturesque communities - both large and small, friendly people and an abundance of places to stay and activities to experience. Beginning spring through to fall you can spend your time fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, sight seeing, canoeing, kayaking, visiting attractions, discovering spectacular parks, shopping and much more.

Exploring the North Shore of Lake Superior you'll discover a boater's paradise. Follow the voyageur routes and explore more than 500 nautical miles of scenic shoreline - from sandy beaches to towering bluffs that plunge deep into the sparkling water, the north shore of this inland sea is a picture of contrasts.

From delicate lavender to rich midnight hues, the amethyst of northwestern Ontario is a treasure of purple. These semi-precious gemstones are found in quantity only here and in six other countries in the world, but no other place on earth produces amethyst of such quality - and in such quantity. Be sure to visit one or more of the area mines for a unique pick-your-own gemstone adventure where you can choose your own specimen right from an open pit mine.

Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world!If you want more information about vacations north of Lake Superior contact the North of Superior Travel Association. You can request a copy of the Lake Superior Circle Tour Guide by visiting the Circle Tour's website.
