Voyageurs National Park: Kabetogama Peninsula
built 190 days ago
One of the striking things about the Voyageurs National Park is its wilderness nature. There are few roads in the park (less than 6 miles total!), and for the most part the visitor who wants to experience the park is going to have to get out of the car and into a canoe, motorboat, or other watercraft. There are trails and old "tote" or logging roads in the interior of the park, particularly on the Kabetogama Peninsula, but the main mode of visitation is surely on one of the many lakes in the park. The view familiar to most visitors to the park is the shoreline of the lake, and to the fortunate ones the view is from a watercraft skimming across the surface of a lake.

The wild 25-mile-long Kabetogama Peninsula, the heart of Voyageurs National Park, is robust canoe country. Nestled in the watery embrace of Rainy Lake and Kabetogama Lake, with their myriad bays and backwaters, and dotted with small lakes, ponds, and swamps that bear such intriguing names as War Club, Beast, Quill, and Little Shoepack, it holds some of the last remnants of the great forested wilderness that once spread across most of this part of the North American continent.

The Parks & Trails Council purchased this 3.4-acre Kabetogama Peninsula shoreline property in Voyageurs National Park from a private landowner who wanted the land to become part of the park. The parcel was No. 1 on the park’s land acquisition priority list because of its high visibility to visitors.
