Grand Portage is a historic community located in northeastern Minnesota along the North Shore of Lake Superior. The area holds significant cultural and historical importance as it was a major fur trading post and meeting place for the North West Company during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

The name "Grand Portage" refers to the 9-mile trail that bypassed the rapids and waterfalls of the Pigeon River, which was crucial for the fur trade route between the Great Lakes and the Canadian northwest. The area is home to the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa and features the Grand Portage National Monument, which preserves and interprets the history of the fur trade, Ojibwe culture, and the interaction between Native Americans and European traders.

The natural landscape surrounding Grand Portage includes boreal forests, rocky shorelines, and scenic views of Lake Superior.
