Why should you drive this road trip?
David says, "I think what makes it really unique is that it's a place that no one really knows about. I think it stands as one of the most beautiful spots in the world that I've ever seen. The nature there is really untouched. You'll be driving, and there'll be signs that say no gas for 150 kilometers. It's very remote."
David recommended road trip itinerary along the North Shore of Lake Superior (as described in the podcast transcript) begins in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and ends in Thunder Bay, following Highway 17, part of the Lake Superior Circle Tour.
Here’s the detailed route he outlines:
Overview
Route: Sault Ste. Marie → Wawa → Marathon → Thunder Bay
Highway: Ontario Highway 17 (Trans-Canada Highway)
Distance: ~700 km (435 mi)
Duration: 5–7 days recommended
Best season: Summer (May – September)
