About this campground

K45

K45 camping area in Minnesota’s Superior National Forest offers dispersed camping only—there are no established sites, so no reservations or fees are required. A free, self-issued permit is needed for overnight use in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). Expect a rugged, remote experience with no toilets, water, picnic tables, or RV access. Campers must pack in supplies and pack out all waste. The area is forested and serene, great for solitude-seekers. Fire grates are at designated BWCAW sites only. Nearby attractions include hiking and paddling trails like the Kekekabic Trail. Best time to visit: late spring through early fall.
