• Mdaabii Miikna: a much shorter, loop trail that is accessed south of Playter Harbour and north of the White River Suspension Bridge via the Coastal Hiking Trail. It features serene boreal forest and the impressive Lake Superior coastline at Picture Rock Harbour.
• White River Suspension Bridge Trail: a challenging and scenic 18-kilometre day-hike.
