Where to go: "FINAL REPORT" For great views of the prairie we suggest hiking from the horse camp on any of the horse/hiking trails. For leaf color we suggest a hike around Mountain Lake. If you wish to see a bit of both prairie and leaf color we suggest a hike to the highest elevation in the park, where you will also get a great view of the topography in the park.
What you'll see: You will see a variety of prairie grasses, plants, and flowers. The sumac is a vibrant red. Leaves are starting to turn and drop. Colors should peak in late September.
Also of interest: Plenty of campsites are still available, electric sites go quickly on busy weekends. Boat, and canoe rentals are available during office hours. Water/showers will be on until October 20th weather depending. The Group Camp will be closed this fall for electrical work.
Last updated: October 13, 2012Can’t decide between a one-day or year-round park permit? The DNR has a special offer that can help. Start by purchasing a one-day permit for $5 and visit as many state parks as possible. After visiting the state parks, trade in the one-day permit by the end of that day and get $5 off the purchase of a year-round permit. Year-round permits, which cost $25, provide unlimited access to all 75 Minnesota state parks and recreation areas for a full year from the month of purchase.
