Want a more leisurely pace?  Kayak on Lake Superior and view the grandeur of Pictured Rocks from the water, cruise around Grand Island Recreation Area and marvel at the spectacular cliffs, caves, arches and lighthouses or see the ships sitting on the bottom of the harbor from the glass-bottomed boat. Enjoy a canoe trip on the Au Train River as it peacefully meanders through the Hiawatha National Forest. Tour the Grand Island Recreation Area by bike, foot, or bus or stroll on some of the trails in Pictured Rocks. Enjoy the many area waterfalls, some can be seen from your car or are just a short walk, while others take you on a nice trail through the forest. Photographers will find wonderful photo opportunities around every turn.

There are wonderful Lake Superior sandy beaches nearby. The Au Train beach is just 8 miles west of the Christmas Motel. Relax and sit in the sand, build a sand castle, or wade in the refreshing waters of Lake Superior.
