HIKING: Memorial Park

← MN CLEAR LAKE EAST SIDE PRAIRIE ISLAND MNSW08 Triple Blaze →

Description

This trail is rests on top of one of Red Wing's gorgeous bluffs and begins in Memorial Park. This trail is popular with local mountain bikers, and some of the trails here are cross-country ski trails during the winter. However, there are some very cool places to hike too, with a varied array of terrain from deep, lush forested singletrack to rocky, dry trail. There some awesome views of Red Wing and the surrounding area!

Directions

Coming from Wisconsin on 63, take a left at Potter St. and then a left on 7th St. Go until you see the massive sign for Memorial Park, and hang a right into it and start driving up the hill. Get up to the top of the hill, go around the one way, and keep bearing right. Start driving down a slight hill, and if you reach the turn around at the bottom, you've gone too far. Turn around and head up hill just a bit, and look for a gate on your left. I'd recommend parking in front of the gate, or parking at the turn around and riding up to here (now see description).
