The tourist office of the region, where you will find all the good addresses to venture into the great forests of the North. Visit Cook County's offices are located in the heart of Grand Marais, a short walk from restaurants and the harbour. You can easily park your car a little further away and walk around the centre. Stop here to stock up on maps and brochures. The website is also very rich in information on activities, accommodation and restaurants. The annual Visitor Guide can be downloaded.

To discover the park at best, first visit the main visitor center, Jacob V. Brower, the name of the park creator in 1891. With the various permanent exhibits, we learn that Itasca is the oldest park in Minnesota, or that it is following the purchase of Louisiana that it has been decided to seek the source of Mississippi. Don't miss a map and above all take a look at the model that represents the park, to find you.

This is where we will stop to pick up brochures, maps and useful information about Ely and the activities the city has to offer. In this tourist office, you can also find a lot of information about the Boundary Waters area. Accommodations, attractions and, most importantly, organizations that offer canoe trips are listed on the website, which is very well done. Good to know: a section is dedicated to winter and the activities you can do in Ely during the cold season.
