At the edge of Lake Superior’s sweeping shore lies Au Train, Michigan, where Kimar's Charters opens the door to a suite of outdoor adventures shaped by water and forest. This area offers a practical playground for explorers seeking activity balanced with straightforward routes and manageable challenges.

Start your day with Kimar’s fishing charters—quiet mornings on Superior’s cold waters, where the lake dares you to match its rhythm. Target lake trout, salmon, and steelhead as the currents push forward, steering your boat into places where only local knowledge prevails. Each trip is calibrated to skill level, making it accessible whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned angler. Fishing gear and expertise come standard, but bringing layered clothing and waterproof boots ensures comfort when the lake turns brisk.

When dry land calls, the nearby Au Train Falls trail delivers a concise 1.2-mile loop with minimal elevation gain (about 150 feet). The path runs firm over roots and rocks, threading through dense forest that hums with pine and birch. Along the way, the waterfall’s relentless tumble commands attention, a natural pulse echoing through the trees. The trail’s moderate footing invites hikers of varied experience, providing sweeping views without unexpected scrambles. Active hikers will appreciate the balance of challenge and reward.

If paddling is your choice, Kimar’s kayak rentals put you on the water where the Au Train River teases currents and reflections. The 3-mile stretch is adaptable; novices can drift with the slow flow, while more adept paddlers test their mettle with gentle riffles. The river banks, alive with whispering leaves and darting wildlife, seem to welcome you into a conversation. Safety gear and floating devices are non-negotiable here. Timing your trip earlier in the day avoids afternoon winds that can flare unexpectedly.

Throughout your excursion, hydration and protection from the elements remain crucial. Au Train’s weather can shift—sun broadens the scene, but sudden showers challenge your plans. Footwear with good grip will navigate slippery rocks near the falls and keep your footing stable on uneven trails. Starting early maximizes daylight and minimizes encounters with biting insects in warmer months.

The true appeal of Kimar's Charters lies in this blend of steady adventure and nature that never slows its pulse. Whether standing on the deck casting lines into Superior or walking beneath trees that watch quietly, you engage with a landscape fiercely itself. Prepare well, respect these forces, and the experience rewards with memories that hold the cool air and textured silence of Michigan’s rugged north shore.
