The Gunflint Lake Nordic Ski Area offers skiers over 100 kilometers of groomed trails for the Nordic Skier. At Gunflint Pines Resort, winter is a lot more than just enjoying great Nordic skiing. After a day outside, enjoy the sauna, a great dinner, and relax by the fireplace. Gourmet dinners are available at Gunflint Lodge our next door neighbor. Gunflint Pines Resort is located 45 minutes from Grand Marais, Minnesota and is easily accessible by car.
Rental cars are available in Duluth in case air transportation is used.
The Gunflint Trail is a well maintained winter road. However, winter driving conditions do exist and we suggest you plan one hour driving from Grand Marais. Winters on the Gunflint Trail can turn cold and snowy. We highly recommend that you have a car or truck that is properly tuned, has good tires, and a battery that is in good winter condition. Electrical outlets are available to plug cars in for those who have car heaters.
