Agassa Lake Unit

Approximate Acreage: 2,356
Percent Federal Ownership: 97%


The Agassa Lake Unit is located just south of the Echo Trail and adjacent to the BWCAW. The unit includes a northern lake and bog area that provides excellent opportunities for peace, quiet and solitude.

The area’s primary attraction is 72-acre Agassa Lake, a beautiful body of water with a backcountry campsite. The Agassa Trail winds its way from the Angleworm parking area off the Echo Trail, through a mixed forest of hardwoods, pine, and birch, to the shores of Agassa Lake.

The Agassa Lake Unit has the potential to create a circular canoe route that includes Big Lake, Lapond Lake, Big Rice Lake, Hook Lake, Rice Lake, and Slim Lake by re-constructing a historic portage between Slim Lake and Big Lake.
