Forest Rules & Regulations
Welcome!Thank you for visiting the Brule River State Forest, with its rich and diverse cultural and ecological heritage and commitment to sustainable forestry management practices. Your visit puts you in good company – Native American tribes, and later, French voyageurs, used the river as a link between Lake Superior and the Mississippi. In more recent times, people from all walks of life and even multiple U.S. presidents have enjoyed the forest’s many recreational oppor tunities. Surprises abound in Brule River State Forest. Let the discoveries begin!
Fun Facts About Bois Brule➤ Native people, most recently the Ojibwe, have used the Bois Brule River and its surrounding resources for thousands of years. ➤ The forest was initiated in 1907 by a deed transfer from Mr. Frederick Weyerhaeuser of the Nebagamon Lumber Company and officiallyestablishedbythestatelegislature in 1932. ➤ Brule River State Forest contains all 44 miles of the Bois Brule River, protecting its watershed and sensitive associated ecosystems including the Brule Bog and headwaters. ➤ The forest’s 47,000 total acres are managed to support a sustainable, multi-use mission of quiet recreation, timber production and natural resource protection. ➤ President Calvin Coolidge found the recreational opportunities of the area so appealing that he moved his entire base of operations to the forest during the summer of 1928.

These habitats are home to a variety of animal species including deer,blackbear,beaver,otter,fisher,mink,bobcat, timber wolf, ruffed and sharp-tailed grouse, and many other species; several of which are threatened or endangered.
Coniferous BogSpring-fed swamps of cedar, spruce and alder at the headwaters of the Brule River are home to unique wildlife such as black-backed woodpeckers, golden-crowned kinglets and occasionally, gray jays.
Upland Pine BarrensThese sand glacial outwash plains above the river valley are dominated by jack pine, red pine and scrub oak and support badgers, upland sandpipers and sharp-tailed grouse.

The river has two distinct personalities. The upper river from Stones Bridge to Pine Tree Landing is relatively calm with several Class I rapids. From Pine Tree to the mouth, the river becomes increasingly faster and paddlers will encounter numerous rapids, including Class II-III rapids at Mays Ledges and Lenroot Ledges.
The forest has 10 designated canoe landings that include vehicle parking areas. This allows for trips from one hour to three days on the river. Rental canoes and shuttle services are availablefromalocaloutfitter.
