Mid-October Tour
We just finished our first Circle Tour, with overnight stops in Duluth, Grand Marais, Thunder Bay, Marathon, Wawa, Sault Ste. Marie, Marquette and Ashland. We enjoyed the fall colors, waterfalls, and nature. Perhaps our favorite day was spent in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, and the entire Upper Peninsula was amazing.

Brimley and Beyond
We traveled from 9/9/18 – 9/19/18 via motorcycle and loved the trip! Especially Wawa and Agawa Canyon. We also stopped at the Circle Tour Headquarter in Duluth! Deborah Decker & Robert Clark Camden, NJ
Autumn Glory
We decided to allow two weeks so we could do everything we wanted and that was plenty of time. We took our 33′ fifth wheel trailer and were worried about campgrounds due to fall colors, but had no issues finding a spot to camp. There were a few campgrounds that closed Labor Day so I did do some calling ahead once we were close. I did not pre-book camp sites. More
Beautiful Lake Superior
We traveled clockwise around the lake, starting in Munising, MI. We then traveled west to Duluth, MN, entered Canada and stayed in Thunder Bay. We then traveled to Terrace Bay, Wawa, and Sault Ste. Marie. We backtracked a little after that to hit the Tahquamenon Falls before voyaging back around east side of Lake Michigan. We loved the fall color and it even snowed on us in Wawa! The lake More
Crisp Point Adventure
Our favorite spot was Crisp Point Lighthouse — 20 miles off the beaten path. The sign on the road says “umaintained road”. We tried with the trailer at first, but only made it 3 miles so we came back the next day without it so we could get there! Alan & Aleta Isaacson, Annandale, MN
Circle Tourists Favor Wisconsin
We love Bayfield! Madeline Island, Tom’s Burned Down Cafe and the Pub there. Ashland and the murals, plus Black Cat coffee. Linda & Jeff Kohler, Saint Louis, MO
A Superior 40th Anniversary
We have spent 40 years vacationing on Michigan’s Lake Superior shore and thought it was time to see the rest of the Lake. We had a high top Ford Transit van outfitted for camping and on September 1st headed out for the Keweenaw Peninsula. We spent three days rediscovering Copper Harbor and then headed for Madeline Island. Camped two nights on the island, explored Bayfield then headed for Minnesota. We More
Completing the Tour, Canadian Side
When contemplating where to go for fall color viewing, Lake Superior came to mind. We decided on an excursion to the Canadian side, the only part of the Big Lake we had not seen on previous travels. Using the Lake Superior Travel Guide along with other sources, we planned a seven-day trip for the last week of September. We started from Sault Ste. Marie, MI, and drove counter clockwise through More
34 Days by Bicycle
Best experience: We rode into Grand Marais, MI on the GM Truck Trail, and worked lots of sand into our chains and gears. It was raining and we were pretty miserable. Everyone had been warning us that a storm was coming with gale-force winds, so we asked about a place to stay. The guy at the gas station answered our question about the campground, but then pointed out Superior Hotel More
