Minnesota has four distinct, thrilling seasons. From fall’s astounding colors to spring’s fields of wildflowers and summer’s long, lazy days at the lake, there’s always a new Minnesota just around the corner.

And winter? In case you can't tell by the frostbitten shot at the top of this page, we love it here. Our Nordic heritage inspires us to embrace cozy season with joyous festivals, stellar winter sports, and enchanted ice castles.

Besides, as Minnesotans will tell you — there is no bad weather. Only bad clothing.
