I'm in Duluth right now so thank you for making this. We visited many of these things our first day and will check out the others the next few days. One thing worth mentioning is the incredible terrain here. You will not believe this is the Midwest with the hills, almost mountains items the city is built on. The fjords to the lake are a big part of the beauty. I'm an architect who worked at a firm that does schools and we collaborated with a local firm about 30 years ago. A colleague told me that Duluth is considered the San Francisco the Midwest, though I've not heard it seen anyone say that but as hilly as the city is that visual should give you a feel of what the city is like.
Another popular place to mention is Fengers, we had brunch at a breakfast place to enjoy the lake views and will go back to the brewhouse for dinner soon.

The video leaves out so much! The geography of Duluth is narow and very long, about 15 miles, and sits mostly on a hillside sloping down to Lake Superior. It makes for thrilling bike rides or winter sledding down steep hills. Duluth sits up against an easy to reach countryside with many lakes to enjoy with swimming, waterskiing, fishing, and cabins. Somes lakes are: Island Lake, Pike Lake, Fish Lake, Rice Lake, Caribou Lake. .A very good place for fishing. Lushious green in the summer. Very colorful in autumn. Lake Superior has a lasting problem with asbestos fiber water pollution from Iron Range mining operation dumping long ago. So the city filters the drinking water.

I grew up in Duluth and it was a nightmare. The winters like you said, are brutal. I dont mean to be negative, but the winters make it miserable. The economy is very heavily medical and tourist based, which means that the economy is really pigeonholed. The north is most pretty if you want to do free stuff in nature, as Duluth doesnt really offer much of anything else; once youve seen all the tourist spots theres not much else. Late September and Early October (if warm enough still) is the best time to visit; the trees become magnificent colors in the fall! Dont wait too long because summer and fall is short, with long winters and slushy springs.

Having lived there for 14 years, look forward to to the many things you really don't see. Get up and across the hill. It was actually created from a glacier many people do not know. A lot of your beautiful nature historicals London road it picks up the original the North lake Superior and then cuts back off to historical drive all the way up to North shore. If not mistaking to Canada. I myself lived top of Lester River Road. Also a historical road to go off at seven Bridges road mister congdonand I believe two other historical aspects of the city help build seven Bridges road it is truly a sight to see no matter interiors I am truly a Godsend

Remember its very liberal and has homeless everywhere. The streets are terrible and most the homes are in very rough shape. This city only cares about canal park. Very expensive. People here are not nice they only want your money. Jobs are limited and seasonal. High rent and low pay. This guy talks like its kid friendly but really isnt. The views are great but its very tough land and very brutal winters. Liberals are destroying this area with very bad management in government and land

Duluth is a shit hole outside of the tourist area and even there you will get approached by homeless people. It is not a safe city after dark unless you are in a large group of people. The mayor is out of touch with reality. Many better places to vacation along with North and South Shores of Lake Superior. Two Harbors MN and Bayfield WI are far better and safer.

The Northern Waters Smokehaus in the DeWittSeitz Marketplace is a Diners Drive Ins and Dives eatery. Get the Pastrami Mommy. To die for. Also, each year in Jan or Feb is the John Beargrease dogsled races. They start in Duluth and go up the north shore. Spectators are welcome at the staging area, and there are dinners and other activities with this event.

I just visited Duluth for the first time a couple months ago on a whim. Cool town. If you've got an afternoon to spare while there, take a drive up Highway 61 to Split Rock Lighthouse. I'd also recommend checking out the Enger Tower Park overlook. It has a fantastic unobstructed view of the city, Lake Superior, and surrounding areas.

Duluth certainly is beautiful? Were you guys able to make the trek further to the Canadian border on the gunflint trail? A town called Grand Marais is there with an amazing pizza place called Sven and Oles. The town is amazing with tons of little shops right on the lake. My favorite place to visit!

The only good thing about Duluth is that its better than adjacent Superior, thought by many as the worst city in Wisconsin. Really Duluth is an old crummy city that has been losing population for years. If its so good why are people leaving?
