This SNA protects a stretch of the Cannon River downstream of Welch, in a meandering section of the river not far from its confluence with the Mississippi River. Sandbars and adjacent uplands here offer potential nesting habitat for turtles, and parts of this SNA are seasonally designated as sanctuary areas.
Running along the Cannon River in southern Minnesota is Cannon Golf Club, an intriguing course sprinkled with wetlands, ponds and streams that make for a fantastic round of golf. This is a traditional course that can be walked by those seeking a traditional experience. Our golf course lies in an oak savannah where the prairie meets the water.
The Cannon River is one of Minnesota’s most popular canoe routes. Although most sections of the river provide paddlers with a relaxing and leisurely experience, there are scattered sections of rapids that are easy navigable by beginners. The width of the Cannon spans from 50 feet to 200 feet, which makes navigation of its channel quite simple. Sporadic logjams and down trees present a small challenge to those at the helm of the canoe.
