This 1.1 billion year-old landscape became a state park in 1957, but visitors have been attracted by its scenery for far longer. The rugged terrain is cleft by the Temperance River Gorge, a crack in the earth that the river rushes through on its way to Lake Superior. See and feel the power of the world’s largest freshwater lake at the beach and picnic area at the mouth of the river. Over 1,000 feet above the lake, Carlton Peak offers panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness. Visit the park for miles of trails, designated trout streams, or camping.
