Point Trail

This trail begins at Prisoner's Cove, curves along the shore and ends at rocky Prisoner Point and a view of formidable Lake Superior.

Notice the delicate plants than have made this inhospitable place their home. Rocks are slippery when wet. Sturdy shoes are recommended Immortalized on canvas by The Group of Seven, this remote and rugged peninsula promises silhouettes of rocky islands polished smooth by icy blue waters.

Only the hardy survive here, including sub-Arctic plants and a rare herd of woodland caribou. Enjoy one the finest beaches on Lake Superior’s north shore or view a model of a former POW camp at the Visitor Centre.
