      Mesabi Trail

      **The 2024 Mesabi Trail Map can be found and downloaded here.**

      The Mesabi Trail is a regional trail that passes through the heart of North Hibbing. The Mesabi Trail is a 10ft wide, paved (asphalt) bicycle trail. Ideal for biking, walking, hiking and running. Stretching from the Mississippi to the Boundary Waters, with almost 150 miles of paved trail, the Mesabi Trail is like no other in the country. Cutting through the forests of northeast Minnesota, your adventure will take you past lakes, creeks and ponds, by vast red pits of old iron ore mines now filled with emerald green water. You are sure to be greeted by native wildlife during your travels.

      Carey Lake Park

      Established in the mid 1960’s and at 1139 acres, Carey Lake Park is Hibbing’s largest park. The park is mostly pristine and undeveloped and contains forested and wetland areas including 139-acre Carey Lake. Carey Lake, also known as DuPont Lake, is located about five miles east of Hibbing, MN and within the St. Louis River Watershed. The small lake is 139 acres with a maximum depth of 13.5 feet and 2 miles of shoreline. There is a small boat access on the east side with limited parking availability. There is a <10 hp outboard restriction on the lake and seaplane base on the southwest side. There is one seasonal outlet (Carey Creek) to Dempsey creek. A 4.25 mile asphalt bike trial runs from Hibbing Community College into Carey Lake Park. The bikeway parallels Dupont Road (25th St.) for 3 1/2 miles. 

      Meals and lodging (as needed) are on your own.
