Hike to Tettegouche Lake Overlook
Added by Allison Herreid
A short hike to a scenic overlook in Tettegouche State Park
Getting to the parking lot:
From Highway 61, turn onto MN-1 and continue for just over 4 miles. Then turn left onto Lax Lake Road. The parking lot will be on your left after about 3 miles. You will see a sign with park maps/information.
The Hike:
From the parking lot, follow the gravel service road as it climbs uphill through the forest. After climbing for a bit, a narrow trail cuts across the road (the first trail that crosses the road). Follow this trail to the right as it winds through the woods. You will reach a sign where the trail turns off to reach the overlook. Be sure to pick up a map at the Visitor Center and check out other awesome hikes at Tettegouche State Park!

State park?!
This is one of those state parks where you can't believe it's a state park and not something more! It's so beautiful. Great hike with a nice view!
