Gunflint Trail Scenic Byway
Magnetic Rock Trail, MN

Magnetic Rock is a huge boulder which throws off compass readings in the area, as does much of this area’s geological formation. The boulder itself is 1.5 miles from the Gunflint Trail. The hike is through forest burned in the Ham Lake Fire. Blueberries are abundant in July and early August. Watch for moose and warbler along this trail. An annual event called Gunflint Green Up brings people of all ages together to plant seedlings in the fire area.
