It's great if you have little ones with short attention spans. We've also done Two Harbors Turn, which is an all day excursion up to Two Harbors. While there they have busses that will drop you off at a restaurant of your choice. The staff on the train is excellent and full of answers. I highly recommend making time for the railroad museum as well.

One of the highlights is exploring the grounds. It was a beautiful fall day with lots of wind. We even saw 3 deer. There is a lot of history here. Everyone had a twin bed until marriage.

We sadly zipped through the whole thing as my niece and nephew were shivering in their little wagon underneath three different blankets. Fortunately due to this it was super short wait times to see Santa, get popcorn, hot cocoa + cookies, and there was no one roasting marshmallows! Haha but the chill air from the water made it a bit unbearable and I think we called it quits after about 15 minutes. Loads of photo opportunities and I'm sure we'll enjoy it more next year. We'll be back!

Wow, is there a lot to see here. After enjoying dinner at the Canal Park Brewing Company, it was…read moretime to wander around the Canal Park itself. TWO lighthouses, breakwater, the 1905 Army Corps of Engineer building and of course, the amazing Aerial Bridge. Sculpture gardens, lots of restaurants and retail shops and hotels. The Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center looked interesting but was closed at the time of day I visited. And I was hoping the bridge would open but it didn't happen during my visit. Note that it gets VERY cold here because of lake effect weather. Be prepared. [Review 17895 overall - 115 in Minnesota - 1416 of 2022.]

From the top you get a full 360° view of Duluth, including the aerial lift bridge, which was super cool to see. The tower's only a few stories high and has rails to help with the climb, though it's not ADA accessible. Along the way, we also learned about Mr. Enger and his impact on the city, plus Duluth's special ties to Norway. Definitely a neat little stop! Not to mention there was a Japanese Zen garden and a few trails.

We looked around and my wife found Positive Energy and we decided to book a weekend in Duluth so we could go dog sledding. We got all of our warm gear ready and headed out. When we arrived we were greeted by the owner and one of the dogs. Next we got a lesson on sleds and dog teams. Walking into the dog area we got to meet all of the dogs. Then we got to harness them and get them set on the rope of each sled. We learned a lot about dogs and the history of sledding the whole time were were there from the staff. They make sure you really understand everything and take the time to answer every question you have. We did the 3 hour tour and it was amazing!!! We got on the sleds as passengers and after about 25 min mine stopped and I got to drive. Wow was it fun, driving a dog sled on my own across a frozen lake. It was a lot more work than I expected but worth every second. After we were done sledding we helped get the dogs off of the sleds, they got treats and we helped get them back to each dogs house. I recommend Positive Energy to anyone wanting to try dogsledding. The staff and the dogs are amazing!
