Voyageur Country
Over 200 years ago, French-Canadian canoemen called voyageurs paddled Minnesota's northern waterway carrying loads of beaver and other fur pelts. Part of their water highway is now Voyageurs National Park, named in their honor. Minnesota's only national park, Voyageurs is dominated by its 30 lakes. The largest are Rainy, Kabetogama, Namakan and Sand Point lakes.
