Snowmobiling
Minnesota Snowmobiling on Lake Vermilion
Minnesota State Trails officially open on December 1.
The Lake Vermilion area offers easy access to more than 1,000 miles of interconnected groomed Minnesota snowmobile trails. We are located at the junction of the Arrowhead and Taconite trail systems. You can literally sled for days without seeing the same stretch twice. Our trails are well-marked and detailed maps are available. Bring the family or make it an adults-only getaway – you won't forget the trip!

PLEASE NOTE:
People planning to ride on any state or grant-in-aid snowmobile trail in Minnesota are required to purchase a Minnesota Snowmobile State Trail sticker for their machine. The trail sticker costs $16 for an annual permit and $31 for a three-year sticker; the price includes a $1 filing fee. The annual permit is valid from November 1 through April 30 of each year. Anyone caught without a valid trail sticker will be required to purchase an annual permit at the price of the three-year permit, which is $31. The annual Minnesota Snowmobile State Trail sticker can be purchased from a deputy registrar or any of the 1,800 electronic licensing agents throughout Minnesota, by telephone at 888-665-4236, or through the Department of Natural Resources web site at www.dnr.state.mn.us. The three-year sticker may only be purchased during snowmobile registration at a deputy registrar office, through the mail to the DNR at 500 Lafayette Road, St. Paul, MN 55155, or with an online renewal at www.dnr.state.mn.us. A $3.50 convenience fee will be added to stickers purchased by telephone or online.
