Cook County, Minnesota

Minnesota’s northeastern tip is home to Cook County, a wild and rugged place that borders Canada and Lake Superior. It’s a land of forests, rocky cliffs, and countless lakes.
Grand Marais is the county seat and it’s a harbor town with quite the arts scene. Outdoor adventures are endless here. You can hike the Superior Hiking Trail, paddle through the Boundary Waters, or hit the slopes at Lutsen Mountains.
The county’s history is rich with Ojibwe culture and the legacy of fur traders and loggers. Fall brings a spectacular show of colors. Winters are long and snowy, perfect for dogsledding and northern lights viewing.
