Report details:

Where to go: The overall peak is over, but there are spots of yellows and golds throughout the park. Hallaway Hill is always a favorite vantage point to view the park and surrounding area. The scenic Park Drive offers a colorful 4.5 mile drive through the heart of Maplewood's forests, lakes and prairies.

What you'll see: Yellows and golds of ash and dark reds of the oaks trees are providing additional color.

Also of interest: Look for trumpeter swans on ponds and lakes and for more observant eye look for red-shouldered hawks perched along in meadows edges.

Special Offer for Park Permits

Can’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.
