When you ride H-58 and get to Grand Marais, hit the Lake Superior Brewing Co. for some good food and a cold beer. The info booklet Bagga was talking about is also online at UPCruising.com it has some good info. If you go in August, when you pull over to take in the sights especially beach areas, keep your eyes peeled for wild blueberry's.

 

a stop at docs hd in shawano is a must. do it on the way up or down.

Well, if you cross the MAC and do the tunnel of trees, stop at Legg's Inn for some really good Polish food.

 

Doc's is awesome. We have never had a bad BBQ meal there yet. We try to get there a couple of times a year. Plan on spending a good half day with all there is to do and see.

 

There's a good brewery in Copper Harbor too.

Fun stop to kill an hour looking around.

Pictured Rocks, definitely.

Take highway 13 out of Superior around the Bayfield Penninsula. Look for concretions along the shore in Cornucopia. Bayfield is kind of touristy but still a charming town - like a New England fishing village without the smell of salt water. Tasty whitefish livers at Maggie's.

If you're a nature boy, Copper Falls State Park near Mellen is a real nice scenic hike.

Bring your longies though. Even in August some days don't get above 60 degrees with the wind off Gitche Gumee.

Or you could ride the north shore instead -
