Isle Royale National Park

Isle Royale National Park is a remote island cluster in Lake Superior and the home for various wildlife like wolves and moose.

Established on April 3, 1940, Isle Royale offers insight into early copper mining in North America plus Native American and industrial-era histories.

The park reflects cultural heritage of fishing vacationing and copper mining.

Accessible only by boat or seaplane, the park is known for its wilderness and solitude.

Spanning multiple ecosystems in relative isolation, the area serves as a designated U.S. Wilderness Area and International Biosphere Reserve.
