Big Falls

Big Falls has served as a riverside settlement in northern Minnesota since the early 20th century. The community stands on the Big Fork River, a tributary of the Rainy River flowing through the forests and wetlands of Koochiching County. The river is part of Minnesota’s state water-trail system, connecting the town with a long-established canoe route through the North Country. Timber work shaped the early growth of settlements across this borderland region, while Big Falls remains a small stop on U.S. Highway 71.
