Savanna Portage State Park is 5,818 acres of dense forests, clear lakes, and unique bog ecosystems in the northeastern region of Minnesota. Visitors can hike the numerous trails that criss-cross the park to get a closer look at its population of wolves, moose, and songbirds. Numbered among these paths is the historic Savanna Portage Trail, traversed by Dakota, Ojibwe, and European voyageurs in years past, as well as the Continental Divide Trail, which marks the division between two mighty North American watersheds. Visitors also come during the summer months to swim in Loon Lake and fish in multiple waterways across the park.
