Swedetown

Calumet Township and the North Houghton County Water and Sewer Authority own 1,900 acres which comprises the Swedetown Recreational Area. The area has 30 kilometer of trails (three miles of which are lighted to allow night-time skiing). Swedetown is largely managed by a publically-formed community group known as the Swedetown Trails Club (STC). The 2,200 sq ft Chalet serves as a warm-up facility for the ski trails and the adjacent lighted sledding and snowboard hill. During the warm months Swedetown trails are used by hikers, trail runners, mountain bikers as well as over 200 participants in the annual Great Deer Chase Mountain Bike Race. There are currently about 24 miles of single-track trails at Swedetown.

The Swedetown Chalet is available to rent. For reservation information call:
