Voyageurs National Park

Rainy Lake, Voyageurs National Park

Voyageurs National Park is "a park of water, islands, and horizons." This "maze of interconnected waterways flow west, and eventually north as part of the arctic watershed of Hudson Bay. It's a place of transition, between land and aquatic ecosystems, between southern boreal and northern hardwood forests, and between wild and developed areas."

Where Will You Explore Winter In The National Park System?

Winter, the season with cold, snow, short days and long nights, can be a challenging season to explore the National Park System. Yet it also holds surprises that reveal themselves in shimmering lights darting across the night sky, in tracks of what passed the night before across the snowscape, and in congregations of wildlife.

Add More National Parks To Battle Climate Change, Improve Biodiversity

That headline packs a wallop. There are those who either disagree the climate is changing due to human behavior, or that there's nothing that can be done regardless of the driver, as well as those who would love to see more national park lands and those who believe such a move would tie up federal lands from multiple resource activities, such as logging or mining.

Billions of stars above the night landscape, Voyageurs National Park

Comprised of over 40% water, this national park is a "maze of interconnected water highways" with a wide-open sky perfect for nighttime star gazing. Just remember to bring your boat, reserve a boat, or take a park ranger boat tour. And yes, there are plenty of hiking trails and wildlife viewing opportunities too.
