3 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •

The longest 3-mile hike you'll ever take! Especially if you do it in early October, when the Fall colors are peaking. Oh my! The lollipop trail around Oberg Mountain branches off from the Superior Hiking Trail (SHT) not far from the trailhead. It climbs gently to a loop that circles the summit, breaking out to a series of stunning viewpoints at numerous locations along the circumference. Oh my, my, my... This is a must see stop along any Fall Colors Tour on the North Shore!

I often love those hikes that are so great you end up with not much mileage. Yay fall colors and birch meadows!

Yeah, and this one's just a classic. One spectacular overlook after another. (You can probably pick them out in the GPS track above!) We actually overheard one woman exclaim, "Who knew you could run out of film on a phone!?" LOL...
