About
The Herriman Lake Trail is 13 miles with loops. More than half of the trail is in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) where permits are required. The Dovre Lake loop passes through mature red and white pines among rock outcrops. The Herriman Lake loop is a blaze of fall colors at the end of September. The Echo River stretch has scenic views of oxbows along the river.
There are lots of exposed rocks and roots and the trail may cross a beaver dam. Be especially careful where there is long grass covering the dam. In ledge rock areas, watch for rock cairns that mark the trail. Map and compass skills are recommended for users of this trail.
