Isle Royale

I’ve Visited 30 National Parks Across the U.S., and This Is the Most Underrated

"I find Isle Royale National Park offers remote wilderness, rich wildlife, and stargazing without the crowds; its location in Lake Superior and limited access by boat or seaplane keep visitor numbers low. I also find the park ideal for backpacking, paddling, and aurora viewing thanks to its rugged terrain and dark ski." - Stephanie Vermillion Stephanie Vermillion Stephanie Vermillion is a travel journalist and photographer covering culture and adventure for Travel + Leisure Outside, and more.
