Beautiful rolling farmland, natural prairies, woodlands and lakes afford year-round recreation. Outdoor enthusiasts find four seasons of fun amidst more than 4,000 acres of managed parks. Visitors come to Carver County for rare experiences not found elsewhere, such as the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum’s 1,200 acres of stunning public gardens, the Chaska Curling Center and Prince’s Paisley Park.
