We visited this park to do our annual family photo update and we loved it. So peaceful and so well kept with beautiful views! Dog-friendliness: Dogs must be leashed at all times. Picnic area: We saw several picnic tables, but didn't need to utilize them.
Date of Visit: 07/09/2023 - We will definitely be back! Wonderful place to take a family hike/walk, lots of area to wander around. Seems like quite a few people have also found this "gem" because it was quite busy when we went, but still found our tranquility out on the trails too. Has a dog park area, and we saw plenty of folks walking dogs on the trails too with leashes.
Driving into the park, there is a point at which you can keep driving or turn into the parking lot. The angle of the entrance to the parking lot makes it difficult to see oncoming traffic from the left as you exit. It would be great if a mirror could be installed. Other than that, the park is great.
Park is amazingly natural and gorgeous. Great place to sit and read a book or just watch birds.
One of the best areas to hike i have found in Minnesota, close to Burnsville anyway. It is a beautiful path with many turns so you can mage the hike longer or shorter as you see fit. It is well maintained, but you still feel immersed in nature. It is not a beginner level paved hike, but more of a trimmed trail, I'd say upper beginner to lower intermediate level. Absolutely stunning views, especially at dusk.
Went down there a few weeks ago for a trail run and loved it. Lots of scenic trails that are great for running and hiking. Easy to get lost if you’ve never been there before so either go with someone who has, read the map/follow signs, or just go explore and figure the rest out as you go. This is quite a ways from my house but I hope to make it back again soon!
GREAT place for snowshoeing!! Plenty of open space for fresh trekking if you want to go off the paths, but also nice paths throughout!!
I got there at dust so I couldn’t explore the park that much but I love the scenery , the trails, the lake and the amazing peace that feels when you get there
Great place to go and explore has a lot of different hiking trails to go on and this place also has horse trails too! Has a lot to offer and go explore!
Nice park. Long walking trails. Lots of hills
