Where to Hike With Kids in Minnesota

An essential part of any road trip, as any adult in the front seat knows, is stopping once in a while to give any restless kids (and pets) in the backseat a break. Every 100 miles or so, getting out of the car and into nature can be just what the doctor, or the driver, ordered.

Luckily, Minnesota offers an abundance of exceptional trails on which to stretch legs of any length. Here are just some of them.

Swing Bridge Park

Built in 1894, the Rock Island Swing Bridge was designed as a double-deck structure carrying railroad traffic on the upper level and vehicle traffic on the lower as it crossed the Mississippi River.

Today, the 670-foot walking pier is Inver Grove Heights’ most iconic landmark and extends over the Mississippi River for a unique panoramic view.
