About

Ascend the opposite side and enjoy a panoramic view of the valley which reveals the underlying geology of this area. Visit Seppmann Mill, a wind driven grist mill fashioned in German style from native stone and lumber, or hike through oak savanna and native prairie grasslands overlooking the scenic Minnesota River Valley.

Awesome park - like a mini Minnehaha - well maintained and they have a buffalo park not far from this location. Great place for hiking or a picnic. Well maintained and staff was very friendly.
