Lookout Louise, Michigan, United States

4.5 (8 reviews) Spent More than 3 hours Ranking #8 in Isle Royale National Park Lookouts

Worth the climb

Some guide books may paint this as more difficult than it really is. The last tenth of a mile is going up, but not at an impossible angle. The view at the top is wonderful, especially on a clear day. We did try to walk beyond the main "scenic overlook," but the downed trees and brush had not been cleared. Some work could be done to enhance the view from the top, but it was certainly beautiful when we were there. We did come to it by a small excursion boat ("The Sandy"), but many come to it via canoe.

    Wonderful view
    Only a mile in, if you come by boat to the hidden lake landing. The trail up is moderate. Great view of Sleeping Giant in Canada and NW sections of Isle Royale *weather permitting".
