ENJOY AN AFTERNOON OF RACES, RAFFLES, GOOD FOOD AND FELLOWSHIP!
The annual Gunflint Trail Canoe Races will take place Wednesday, July 16, 2025. This community gathering and fundraiser will begin at 4 p.m. on the south shore of Gunflint Lake, at the Gunflint Lodge harbor. The underlying mission of the Races is to support the efforts of the Gunflint Trail Fire Department (GTFD) while bringing together residents and visitors to the Trail for an evening of Northwoods-style fun.
According to GTVFD Chief Jim Morrison: “The generous contributions of The Gunflint Trail community support our services. Our volunteer fire department has a contingent of 18 EMT’s and EMR’s, delivering emergency services all along the Gunflint Trail by personal vehicles and our ambulance.”
Friends of The Gunflint Trail, a committee of volunteers from up and down the Trail, have worked diligently to bring the Races back this year. The Canoe Races have successfully served the Gunflint Trail for more than 40 years.
