  "summary": "IDA gold-tier — lake wilderness on the Canadian border, aurora regular.",
  "intro": "Voyageurs National Park is a water-based wilderness of interconnected lakes along the Canadian border, and its skies are dark enough that the park itself lists specific overlooks as its best stargazing spots. On clear nights the aurora is a realistic possibility, not just a hope.",
  "established": null,
  "drivingFromToronto": "Accessed via International Falls or Ash River, MN, with several visitor centers reachable by road; much of the park interior is boat-access only.",
  "bestTime": "Fall through spring for longer nights and better aurora odds; the park highlights the shoulder seasons for stargazing.",
  "highlights": [
    "NPS-designated International Dark Sky Park",
    "Named overlooks — Voyageurs Forest Overlook, Kettle Falls Dam, Beaver Pond Overlook — for easy road-accessible viewing",
    "Border-lake wilderness with almost no artificial light nearby"
  ],
  "tips": [
    "Much of the park is boat-access only — road-accessible overlooks are the practical choice for casual visitors",
    "Bring warm layers even in summer; nights on the water cool quickly",
    "Check park ranger program schedules for guided night-sky events"
  ],
  "whatToSee": "Milky Way over lake horizons, planets, meteors, and aurora borealis on active nights given the park's northern latitude.",
