Bike-Friendly Lodge in Lutsen – Caribou Highlands Lodge
All-season North Shore resort with bike wash, repair station and shuttles
About
Caribou Highlands Lodge sits on the mountain at Lutsen in Minnesota’s Sawtooth range, and it has the basics that make a good Bike-Friendly Lodge in Lutsen. It is an all-season resort, ski-in in winter and a trail base in summer.
Bike facilities
The resort has a bike wash station and a bike repair station for guests, and shuttles are available, which helps with point-to-point rides along the North Shore.
Trails nearby
The newly paved Gitchi Gami State Trail starts at the bottom of Ski Hill Road, and a short drive up the road leads to hard-pack mountain bike trails for a range of skill levels. Lutsen Mountains is right next door.
Rooms
Lodging ranges from lodge rooms to condominiums, townhomes and a four-bedroom vacation home, many with mountain views, so it works for couples and bigger riding groups alike.
Good to know
Caribou Highlands is part of Odyssey Resorts. Ask the front desk about current shuttle options when you book. In winter the same resort puts you at the lifts of Lutsen Mountains, so it works as a year-round base for the North Shore.
