Superior Shuttle Service Reservations

We are now taking reservations for the 2024 Hiking Season!

• This year our Customized Shuttle Service is again available six days a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
• Our Customized Shuttle Service is generally not available on Wednesday. We reserve that day for preventive maintenance on our vehicles. If you need a reservation for a Wednesday, please call the office. If we have a vehicle and driver available, we are more than happy to make that happen.
• Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to shuttle and driver availability.
• Custom Reservations must be placed at least three days in advance online
• If you need a reservation less than three days from now, please call us at (218) 834-5511 during our normal office hours, or text us if it's outside of our office hours. We will do our best to book your reservation request.

• Each vehicle will be restricted to only one group at a time (with group sizes ranging from one to six hikers) for the entire duration of the ride from pick-up to drop-off.
• Face masks may be required to be worn by everybody on board, depending on current recommendations by government agencies. We recommend that you come prepared to wear a mask in case it is required. If it's not required, but you want everyone to wear masks, just let your driver know. We are more than happy to comply. Your safety and comfort is important to us.

I-35 Construction

If your travel to the Superior Hiking Trail includes driving on I-35 (through Duluth), we recommend adding extra time to your schedule, or finding an alternate route as you approach Duluth.  I-35 Construction and delays are expected all summer long.  The construction is happening near the I-535 interchange.  See the MN DOT website for more information.

Superior Hiking Trail Association

We love our friends at the Superior Hiking Trail Association. They have a lot of great information on their website.

For your convenience, here are some links we recommend:

• Latest trail conditions
• Trail details, section by section, including mileage, descriptions, and maps
• Day hiking information
• Overnight hiking, including information on campsites
• Calendar of events
• Superior Hiking Trail Association Blog
• Their Email Signup (to receive the latest news, trail conditions and events)

We also really recommend their Superior Hiking Trail Databook.

• It's small (5" x 7", and about 1/4" thick)
• Lightweight
• It's filled with data, such as hiking distances, elevation profiles, and distances between campsites
• It's a wonderful tool to plan your hikes on the Superior Hiking Trail
• They also have other guidebooks and maps to make your hiking and planning easier.
