Keweenaw Peninsula

Some adventures are better together! Bike tires crunching on a gravel road, exploring hidden corners where few travel, eating meals under the stars, roasting marshmallows over a campfire, sipping coffee in the cool morning air…

Bespoke Bikepacking Adventure Co. is partnering with Niina Baum (@niinatheadventuress) for a fall hot tent adventure on the Keweenaw Peninsula. Enjoy the fall weather along Lake Superior, meet fellow bikepackers, explore quiet places, eat good food, and experience something a little different. We will explore the beautiful Keweenaw Peninsula between Lac La Belle and Copper Harbor over one night and two days on a mix of pavement, gravel, sand, and singletrack. Meals and hot tents will be provided; there will even be a sauna! All you need for this overnighter is your bike, something to sleep on, and a heart open to having fun. Yes, it’s that simple! 

Where?

The adventure begins in Lac La Belle. Overnight accommodations are available at Mt Bohemia for before or after the adventure. 

When?

The group departs Oct. 3 at 10:00 am. We will return by late afternoon on Oct. 4.

Cost?

Cost is $250 per person for a shared hot tent, $350 per person for a private tent. There are two private hot tents available that sleep 2 people and 2 shared hot tents that sleep 4. Price includes food and tents.
