This 60-Foot-Tall Magnetic Rock is Hidden in a Minnesota Forest
It's a little-known piece of geologic history, nestled in a Minnesota forest. Just be careful not to wear any magnetic apparel around it, or you might not be able to get away.
Be prepared for a bit of a hike while heading to this towering rock, as it's only accessible by hiking trails.
Where is the Magnetic Rock in Minnesota?
You can find this one-of-a-kind rock close way up near Grand Marais, Minnesota, in the Superior National Forest.
How Did This Rock Become Magnetic?
Minnesota's Magnetic Rock is largely made of Iron and Magnetite, which explains why it is so magnetic.
Not only will a magnet stick to the rock but if you happen to have a compass on hand, you'll see it spin out of control.
What Else Can You See On The Trail?
The Magnetic Rock Hiking Trail is a 3 Mile trip through some of the most scenic forested areas in the entire state of Minnesota. Don't be surprised if you spot a moose on your way up either.
