Loved our trip around the Grand rounds. Rode with our bike group one Sunday in September. Reasonably well marked, but be sure to check the map at each of the gazebo like structures or run a map app on your phone. Beautiful ride.

We went down to Loring park by walking the Greenway from our hotel. Friends had told us there was free skating and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the skates and the comfort of the warming house. Ice is created by flooding, so not perfectly flat and smooth, but they do a wonderful job with what they have. After the skating, we got lunch at the Holidazzle food vendors. It was lots of fun! Highly recommended.

My neighborhood park for exercise and relaxation. If you enjoy getting up close to nature, this is a quiet not so well-known park. You will need a Washington County park pass to park your car. Walk, bike or ride a horse in the spring, summer or fall and cross country ski on two trails (for the average skier or one for the experienced) in the winter and the trails are groomed. The park isn't large but the scenery is great and you see lots of nature up close. The trail connects with the Gateway trail so you can walk/ride for miles. Enjoy!
8. Brown's Creek Trail

We came to Stillwater from an hour away for the day with our electric bikes. It was a very hot Saturday in July. The Brown’s Creek trail runs parallel to a creek in the woods so you don’t feel the heat. We rode one way 6 miles and back into downtown Stillwater and then the 5 mile loop south of Stillwater into Wisconsin and across the historic lift bridge into Stillwater. There are a lot of people who use the trail, pedestrians and bikers. Trail is in good condition. On the Wisconsin side the pedestrian and bikes are two separate parallel paths. If you are traveling through Minnesota and have your bikes with you don’t have a lot of time, this is the trail to do. We started riding mid morning and had lunch in Stillwater afterwards.
9. Coon Rapids Dam Regional Park

My favorite park in the north metro, Coon Rapids Dam Regional Park has trails on the east side of the Mississippi River, north and south of the Coon Rapids Dam. My favorite trail is north of the Visitor Center (and the parking areas). The section along the river is asphalt, and the section through the forest is limestone-covered. My usual trip is up one side and down the other. Both the river trail and the forest trail are kept up year-around. The wildlife and plants are marvelous. A real attempt is made to keep this trail as natural as possible. The short loop is about 2 miles, and the longer one is about 3 miles. I visit in every season of the year!
