The Grand Portage Trail connects the town of Grand Portage on the Western shore of Lake Superior to the Pigeon River and the inland lakes and rivers of the Boundary Waters and beyond. The town is named after the trail and means “great carrying place.” A portage is a path between lakes or rivers that is typically a few hundred yards long. This portage is 8.4 miles long and bypasses the unnavigable rapids and waterfalls on the lower 21 miles of the Pigeon River. It was a key link in the fur trade in the 1700s.
