    Ojibway Tower on Isle Royale is a historic landmark, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the island and surrounding waters.

    Built in 1934, the tower was originally used as a fire lookout. It stands at 65 feet tall and is located on the highest point of the island, allowing you to take in expansive vistas of the lush forests, crystal-clear lakes, and rugged shoreline. The tower’s upper platform, accessible via a sturdy metal staircase, provides a 360-degree view that stretches across the island’s wilderness, including the waters of Lake Superior. The experience not only gives a glimpse into the island’s raw beauty but also offers a window into its rich history as a remote outpost of the National Park Service.
