点评:We visited Voyageurs with our three children (ages 5, 7 and 9). We enjoyed the displays at the Rainy Lake Visitor Center and found the park staff to be friendly and knowledgeable. There were plenty of picnic tables available for us to eat lunch at here before we began a ranger-lead boat tour that left from the visitor center. My suggestion is to book your boat tour well in advance. I tried to book a tour about 2-3 weeks before our visit, but every tour was full for the dates we were in town (which was mid-week) and I had to extend our stay by a day in order to have a boat tour opportunity.
We did the "Grand Tour", which was over 3 hours long. My kids stayed entertained by the scenery and commentary provided by park staff. There was about 40 people on board, but we never felt overly crowded. We were able to move freely around the boat once the tour started. The staff was friendly and worked hard to answer questions and show us wildlife. This was a highlight of our trip to Voyageurs.
We hiked several trails in the park with our young children (Oberholtzer, Voyageurs Forest Overlook Trail, Beaver Pond Overlook Trail and Blind-Ash Bay Trail). The hiking trails were beautiful and rugged, but they didn't offer any expensive views. We are a hiking family and live in the northern forests of Michigan, so while we enjoyed the hiking trails here, we've been on better hikes before. That being said, we enjoyed exploring an area new to us and there is much beauty to be found here. To fully experience Voyageurs, make sure you have a plan for how you will get out on and enjoy the water!
翻译:我们带着三个孩子(分别是5岁、7岁和9岁)参观了“航海者”号。我们很喜欢雷尼湖游客中心的展览,公园工作人员友好且知识渊博。在游客中心出发,我们乘坐由护林员带领的游船游览之前,这里有很多野餐桌供我们享用午餐。我建议提前预订游船。我尝试在参观前2-3周预订,但我们到达镇上的那几天(当时是周中)每次游船都客满,为了有机会体验游船,我不得不延长一天的行程。
我们参加了“盛大之旅”,时长超过3小时。孩子们被公园工作人员的精彩景色和解说逗乐了。船上大约有40人,但我们并没有感到拥挤。游览开始后,我们可以在船上自由活动。工作人员非常友好,并尽力解答我们的疑问,并向我们展示野生动物。这是我们“航海者”号之旅的一大亮点。
我们带着孩子们在公园里徒步了好几条步道(奥伯霍尔策步道、旅行者森林观景步道、海狸池观景步道和盲灰湾步道)。这些步道风景优美,崎岖不平,但景色却不尽如人意。我们一家人都喜欢徒步旅行,住在密歇根州北部的森林里,所以虽然我们很喜欢这里的步道,但我们以前也遇到过更好的步道。话虽如此,我们还是很喜欢探索这片陌生的土地,这里有很多美景等着我们去发现。为了充分体验旅行者的乐趣,请务必制定一个出行计划,好好享受水上乐趣!
