Aaniin! Welcome! Traveling to the Chippewa National Forest means traveling "up north". The Forest, located in the heart of northern Minnesota, is a celebration of seasons, culture, and environment. This northern hardwood forest mixes between the western prairies and the northern boreal forest to the north and east. It is a Forest with shared boundaries-red oak to white pine, wild ginger to wild rice and Canada lynx to sandhill crane. The border is also shared between governments as well, with the Chippewa National Forest working across shared borders with the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe. ENJOY the Chippewa National Forest!
Enjoy Summer on the Chippewa... Imagine spending time on a warm sunny beach, hiking a forest trail, fresh walleye, loons calling, a sunset and northern lights.
Quick! Where can you nibble on crayfish tails, take a wildflower hike, travel back in time and purchase a bug net all at the same time? Try the Chippewa National Forest Visitor Centers! The Visitor...
