Duluth’s Lakewalk has had a rough time this past year. Nevertheless, the area shows off Duluth at its best — depending on the weather, of course. Or maybe not. Residents and tourists flock to the lake whether it’s filled with sunshine and seagulls, or wind and waves. Whether you’re picking up this issue to learn about the city, or you’ve lived here your whole life, we invite you to check out Duluth’s biggest attraction alongside the world’s biggest lake.
