Temperance River Campground
The Temperance River Campground is a small campground easily reached from the Sawbill Trail (Cook County 2). It provides pine-shaded campsites nestled in a bend of the Temperance River and offers access to trout fishing in the Temperance and mountain biking a large network of Forest Service roads. The roads shown in the map vary in condition and levels of vehicle travel. Bikers should obtain a current Superior National Forest map before setting out. Downloadable information and map.
