Remember to buy your ski pass
Skiers over age 16 need a Great Minnesota Ski Pass to use the 1,100 miles of groomed ski trails on public lands around the state. Fees go directly toward grooming ski trails! 1-day, 1-year and 3-year passes available.
State park library pass
Now you can literally check out state parks. At over 200 Minnesota libraries and Bookmobiles, you can check out a free seven-day state park pass through the Library Pass Program.
Don't get lost - navigate with your phone!
The free Avenza Maps® app uses GPS location tracking so you can stay found, even off the grid. Download the app and a GeoPDF map at home, and you won't need Internet or cell service once you're on the trail.
