Minnesota State Parks

Minnesota has 64 beautiful parks across the state! From popular Interstate State Park to remote George H. Crosby Manitou State Park, our state parks offer fun and (often) accessible ways for families to enjoy nature together. If you love exploring Minnesota State Parks with your kids, these guides were created just for you! Each guide covers the best trails and activities within the park for families. I’ve even included mini itineraries to help you plan, whether you have one hour or a whole day. Plus, I’ve also included nearby restaurants and hotels to help you plan your visit. There are so many ways to explore Minnesota. I hope these state park guides get you outside, on the trail, and making new memories together!
