Avon Hills Forest SNA
About
This 350-acre SNA lies in the heart of central Minnesota's 65,000-acre Avon Hills region. The region is known for its constellation of high value natural and cultural features within the rolling terrain of the St. Croix Moraine.
Any season merits a visit: early spring for neo-tropical migrant songbirds establishing nesting territories or refueling for journeys farther north; fall for seasonal color in the oaks, maples, birch and tamarack; or, as local resident Kenzie Cotty (age 12) writes , "If you want to believe that anything is possible, you should go take a walk in the Avon Hills in winter as the snow falls."
This site has no maintained trails or other recreational facilities. This site is in an Audubon Important Bird Area.
