The Heart of the Continent Partnership is a group of Canadian and American land managers and local stakeholders that work together on cross border projects to promote the economic, cultural, and natural health for the lakes, forests and communities on the Minnesota and northwest Ontario borders.
The partnership areas are rich in outdoor activities and experiences. In order to showcase these adventures, National Geographic has teamed with local stakeholders to create a website that acts as a local guide for visitors. Travel the Heart allows viewers to plan a trip to the region, displaying opportunities for each town within the region. Travel the Heart encourages its viewers to explore the interactive guide, saving places and experiences in categories of Trip Ideas and Trip Plans.
