Where to go: Take the Hiking Club trail through the prairie and you are sure to see beautiful blazing star and golden rod in bloom. The big blue stem and indian grasses are going to seed and are showing their color.
What you'll see: Tree color at Minneopa has started to increase over the last few days. Areas around the waterfall and minnesota river valley are best.
Also of interest: Highway 68 passes by the park and is the Minnesota River Valley National Scenic Byway. When the colors start changing this is a very nice drive.
Last updated: October 2, 2013Can’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 76 Minnesota state parks and recreation areas for a full year from the month of purchase.
