We completed the Lake Superior Circle Tour on 03 August 2022 in Marquette, Michigan. We spent 34 days spread over three visits to get all the way around. The journey is 1,300 miles if you don’t take any side trips. We don’t travel without taking side trips 😉 This was one of our favorite adventures and we hope the blog helps others who might be planning their own expedition.
We referred to the, now dogeared, 2019 edition of the Lake Superior Travel Guide from Lake Superior Magazine extensively.
There is now an Adventure Guide available on-line or in print format.
Here are links to all of our trip segments, in case they are helpful:

Writing to Lake Superior Magazine about our trip yielded this certificate and a fun sticker to commemorate the trip.
We would be happy to answer questions about the trip if you leave them in comments.
