Get in
Ely, Minnesota is one of the main entry points into the Boundary Waters.
Fees/Permits
Get around
With few roads in the area, the only practical form of transportation is by boat or floatplane. With portages frequently necessary to get from one lake to another, canoes and kayaks are the only watercraft capable of reaching many of the lakes; regulations prohibiting motorboats on most lakes limit their range even further.
