Voyageurs National Park
Operating Hours & Seasons

Voyageurs National Park is open year-round.

During the warm months of summer the park is a destination for people who enjoy exploring by boat.  The interconnected waterways and miles of shoreline offer unparalleled opportunities for water-based activities.

During the cold northern winters the park is transformed into a world of white.  Frozen lake surfaces provide access to people on snowmobiles, while trails through the forest welcome those exploring on snowshoes or cross-country skis.
