Our whole family 8 of us had the time of our lives. The picture perfect scenery, highly educated and experienced guides and the most beautiful, friendly Alaskan huskies were the highlights. The grounds are very well maintained and the property was set up so well for these dog sledding tours. They have a rental shop for items you may need or want along with a great apparel section. We would go back in a heart beat. Amazing job Chilly Dogs!

Trezona Trail

Reviewed By williamsD1929CM - Henry, United States

The Trezona Trail is a 4 mile, paved walking trail around Miner's Lake in beautiful Ely, MN. Walking this trail brings you close to both nature and history as you walk past old mine sites with educational material provided along the trail. There are few hilly spots and a short stretch which is not paved. Bicyclists use the trail but no motors are allowed. The Trezona Trail is a MUST for Ely visitors!

Bass Lake Trail

Reviewed By sjoh1963 - Woodridge, United States

Whenever we come to the area we usually make this hike. Summer and winter both! It is not too difficult but has some minor challenges. The waterfall is beautiful and you can play in the cool water in summer months. Winter has special beauty.

Kawishiwi Falls Trail

Reviewed By workhardplayhard27 - Mantorville, United States

This is a mostly flat trail that is accessible for most people (the trail includes a lot of roots, rocks, and wooden boardwalks). The payoff is a grand view of Kawishiwi Falls. The views are gorgeous and well-worth the short hike.
