Pilot Travel Center #444

What they do. Who they serve.

Pilot Travel Center #444 sits just off I-35 in Hermantown, Minnesota, in the Duluth metro area—a critical corridor linking the Twin Cities to the North Shore and Canada. Open around the clock, this location serves as a primary winter pre-stage point for drivers navigating Minnesota's harsh cold-weather months, offering a reliable place to fuel, park, and prepare before pushing north or tackling lake-effect conditions. The center provides diesel fuel, ample truck parking, and essential amenities for commercial drivers running freight through the upper Midwest. Whether you're hauling into Duluth's port district, staging for a border crossing, or simply need a safe overnight spot during a blizzard, this Pilot offers the basics in a region where dependable stops matter. It's a practical choice for owner-operators and fleets working the I-35 corridor year-round.
