Share
A paddling map specific to Voyageurs National Park has been printed/NPS

In collaboration with National Geographic, Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota has designed a map specifically geared toward visitors who travel the park by canoe or kayak.

These topographic maps feature recommended paddle routes along the shorelines of Voyageurs National Park. The routes are broken down into labeled sections. Each section has a brief route description that includes highlights one can expect to see while paddling, as well as any special conditions to be aware of, such as exposure to prevailing winds and areas of heavy boat traffic.

The maps are printed on a durable material that is waterproof and tear-resistant.

Maps are expected to be available at all Voyageurs National Park visitor centers in the coming weeks. Plan a trip to a visitor center near you to learn more about the park, pick up the newest map, and plan your own paddling adventure in Voyageurs.

Those paddlers planning on camping in the park are reminded that campsite reservations are required. Visitors may make reservations by going online at www.recreation.gov or by calling the National Call Center at (877) 444-6777.

Overnight tent visitors may find a summary of the reservation program and policies on the Voyageurs National Park camping page. Instructions for making a campsite reservation are also available online.
