local travel recommendation: THE NORTH SHORE🐻🌲

Planning a trip to the Twin Cities? Take your adventure outside the cities with a weekend getaway to Duluth, MN, on the scenic North Shore of Lake Superior. Duluth offers a rich blend of history, nature, and unique attractions.

Explore the iconic Split Rock Lighthouse, wander through the Glensheen Mansion, and climb the Enger Tower for some views. If there’s bad weather don’t worry- there is a Great Lakes Aquarium right downtown. Duluth is the perfect destination for those seeking an adventure outside of the cities. You can take a stroll through canal park and watch ships pass through. Spirit mountain is not far and offers ziplining or mountain biking in the summer- skiing, snowboarding and tubing in the winter. My favorite thing to do is take a scenic drive along the North Shore and stopping to explore small towns.

If you are driving from the Cities stop on your way for lunch at Gordys and get a delicious Cheeseburger and shake.
