About Tettegouche State Park
Tettegouche State Park sits on Minnesota's legendary North Shore along Lake Superior, protecting 9,346 acres of some of the most dramatic and rugged landscape in the Midwest. The park's crown jewel is High Falls, where the Baptism River plunges 60 feet through a narrow gorge of billion-year-old lava rock—Minnesota's highest waterfall and one of the most photographed natural features in the state. The falls can be reached via an easy half-mile hike from the parking area, making it accessible to visitors of all abilities who want to witness the thundering cascade and feel the mist rising from the gorge below. Beyond High Falls, Tettegouche offers stunning Lake Superior overlooks from Shovel Point and Palisade Head, where ancient volcanic cliffs rise over 200 feet directly above the world's largest freshwater lake, creating vistas that rival any coastal scenery in North America. The Superior Hiking Trail passes through the park, offering backpackers access to remote inland lakes including Mic Mac, Nipisiquit, Nicado, and Tettegouche Lakes—pristine wilderness waters surrounded by northern hardwood and boreal forests. The park's dramatic topography results from volcanic activity 1.1 billion years ago followed by glacial sculpting, creating the steep ravines, rocky outcrops, and stunning Lake Superior shoreline that define the North Shore experience. In autumn, Tettegouche transforms into a kaleidoscope of fall colors as maple, birch, and aspen blaze against the deep blue of Lake Superior and the evergreen backdrop of spruce and fir. Winter brings cross-country skiing and snowshoeing through a frozen wonderland where Lake Superior's waves crash against ice-covered cliffs. The park's remote interior offers backcountry camping at four secluded lakes, while the lakefront features cart-in campsites where you can fall asleep to the sound of Superior's waves. Located about an hour northeast of Duluth along scenic Highway 61, Tettegouche represents the quintessential North Shore experience—where ancient volcanic rock meets the world's greatest lake, where waterfalls thunder through deep gorges, and where wilderness and accessibility combine to create one of Minnesota's most treasured outdoor destinations. Whether you've stood at High Falls feeling the spray, scrambled across Shovel Point's rocky coastline, hiked to a remote backcountry lake, or simply driven the North Shore with Tettegouche calling your name, this park embodies the wild beauty that makes Minnesota's Lake Superior shoreline legendary. This vintage-style poster celebrates the waterfalls, cliffs, and wilderness that make Tettegouche unforgettable.
