Bemidji Travel Guide: 26 reviews and 57 photos

Bemidji is a great town in northern Minnesota that provides plenty of boating, hiking and birdwatching opportunities. But of course, it's most famous for this statue of Paul Bunyan, the legendary lumberjack whose giant footsteps created all the lakes in Minnesota!!

I like trips to the peace and quiet of woods and lakes. This sounds just like my kind of place.
