Great Outdoors

Minnesota is the land of 10,000 lakes, so there’s plenty for you to explore outdoors! Rent a kayak and paddle around the chain of lakes (Lake Calhoun, Lake of the Isles, or Lake Harriet) in Minneapolis. If you want to see a stunning waterfall, Minnehaha Falls is where you must go. There are lots of pristine state parks as well, and the University of Minnesota’s Landscape Arboretum, ranked the #1 botanical garden in the country, is certainly worth a trip.
