This web page shows a virtual hike of the Superior Hiking Trail (SHT) in real time. The hikes are organized from south to north, beginning at the Minnesota-Wisconsin Border and ending at the 270 Degree Overlook which is near the Minnesota-Canada Border. I have organized the videos to align with the official SHT website. For up to date maps, parking and the current status of the SHT, visit that website.
Since the videos on this web page were taken at a specific moment in time, what you see in the video may no longer be accurate. The videos were taken during all seasons of the year, so just like the real SHT, conditions will change from section to section.
