Intriguing because of its narrow gorge which has created many potholes along the bottom of the river.
Temperance River, like many of the state parks along the North Shore, offers immediate access to the falls with excellent (and safe) vantage points. So when were returned a couple years after our first visit, we decided to take a slightly different route and followed the "Hiking Club" labeled path along the north side of the river (go clockwise heading up river). We visited on October 9, which was mid-week and the colors were breathtaking! Truly peak fall colors as best as we had ever seen them. What we loved about this visit was what the Temperance offers once you get past the main falls - the trail gets quieter, the river widens with several additional falls along the route, and all of sudden the view opens up to an incredible back drop of birch-covered hills. We thought, this is a white-capped mountain away from Colorado! The golden leaves mingled in with tall pines and a calming, pristine river was definitely the highlight of our week. We spent about an hour and a half for a pretty leisurely hike (which I think was around 1.5 miles), stopping several times, and with a 2-year-old on the back. Of note, all the state parks are worth visiting, but the farther north one travels, the better they get (including Cascade River)!

Named by a missionary priest who put up a cross at this site after arriving safely at the river's mouth.
A nice stop on our way back from Grand Portage. By this time the rain had stopped and the sun was shinning on the falls as they came down to Lake Superior. This was one of three falls we planned on seeing on our trip from Knife River to Grand Portage and back. We are glad that it did not disappoint.

We had a great time speaking with the staff at the nature center. Very informative and lots of programs happening. The hike down to and around the lake was the highlight though. Excellent sights! There is a $5 suggested fee.
