Very nice and smoothly paved bridge with a nice view

This overlook is a fantastic spot to catch a glimpse of Lake Superior from an elevated vantage point. It's a great spot to take a break and capture a few memorable photos while enjoying this beautiful park.

​The Martin Road Trailhead marks the northern starting point of the Superior Hiking Trail's North Shore section, offering access to 94 backcountry campsites along a 260-mile stretch to the Canadian border. From here, the trail leads through diverse landscapes, including mixed forests and occasional ponds, providing a relatively flat and scenic route.

Here you can explore the westernmost point of the Great Lakes and look out across the mighty expanse of Lake Superior. There is a carriage road, paved bike path, and boardwalk that all run in parallel along the shore from Duluth to the northern lighthouse pier.

This little park sits along an overlapping portion of the Superior Hiking Trail and the Lakewalk, which stretches for miles along Lake Superior's shoreline. It's a great spot to watch ships coming and going under the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge.

Don’t miss the swinging bridge, a thrilling way to cross the Saint Louis River and admire the rugged gorge. The bridge was built in 1924 and rebuilt after a flood in 2012. It’s a symbol of the park and a great spot for photos.

The Saint Louis River is a sight, especially from the historic truss bridge that crosses it on the William Munger Trail. You can feel the force of the water as it carves a deep gorge through the rocks, creating a dramatic contrast with the forested hills. The bridge is part of Jay Cooke State Park, where you can find plenty of hiking, biking, and camping. The park also features the Thomson Dam, a hint of Duluth’s industrial past.

Hike the Carlton Trail for scenic views of the river and the historic town of Thomson.
