Kadunce Hunter Walking is a 3.3-mile out-and-back hike in the Gunflint Ranger District of Superior National Forest in Minnesota, managed by the Forest Service. The trail rises from about 1,574 feet to a high point of 1,636 feet, with a total elevation gain of 258 feet over the round trip. The steepest stretch comes at about 1.5 miles in, with a grade of about 5 percent. The route is rated moderate, and the trail surface is natural. Bikes are allowed, but the trail is not accessible. The hike is open year-round, and the estimated time is about an hour. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the nearby Grand Marais weather station show July and August highs around 69°F with lows in the low 50s, though that station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Several other routes start close by, including Kadunce Hunter Walking B and Kadunce Hunter Walking D. Kimball Lake Campground is about 2.8 miles away, and the Brule River offers fishing about 3.9 miles off.
