One of the best ways to explore Three Rivers Park District year-round is to head out for a hike on our extensive trail system. Hiking combines exercise and fresh air for a rejuvenating, stress-relieving experience that everyone enjoys. Our trails wind through the woodland, grassland and wetland habitats of many species of wildlife. And don’t forget to look up! Minnesota is home to over 420 bird species, including some of the largest populations of loons and bald eagles in the country. You’ll be amazed at what you might see.
In the spring, summer and fall, hikers can choose between paved bike/hike trails and unpaved hiking-only trails. In the winter, we offer plowed and snow-packed trails. Our Natural Resources division oversees the operations of these trails to maximize their scenic beauty while minimizing any environmental impact.
