Minnesota: Hawk Ridge raptors and migration spectacular

Mid to late September is peak time for witnessing the migration of birds like hawks, eagles, falcons, blackbirds, blue jays, robins, and many others at Duluth’s famed Hawk Ridge Bird Observatory. We will stay in one hotel that is just minutes from Hawk Ridge and offers easy access to the surrounding area during a time of year that features both incredible bird migration and spectacular fall colors.

Itineraries will be updated with plenty of time before the next departure. Our itineraries usually show minimal changes between years, but some substantive updates can occur as birding access and information evolves. For any specific questions regarding these trips, please contact us.
