Beautiful waterfalls we followed the path along the stream to a wonderful swimming hole. There were a good many steps to get down to the main path but there were benches along the way. Great outdoor activity. Nice pavillion with food served. Picnic benches for those that choose not to hike the path and stay up in the park. Charge for parking at the meters.
This is the most beautiful park within Minneapolis, and it feels like you are nowhere near an urban area. The people are all very relaxed, lots of places to stop and sit, and a fantastic ice cream place as well. I hear that the restaurant is excellent too. A very relaxing time with plenty of walking area too and exquisite water falls.
I live in Minneapolis and this is one of my favorite places. The park has a lot to offer in all seasons.
If you live in this city, you have seen the "Falls" as we call it. Family's frequently have picnics in the pavilion. Access is so easy regardless of how you get there. If you drive there is a minimal fee for parking. Very peaceful atmosphere.
Great falls to visit all year around. Hiking behind the falls in winter is also a great experience..
This park is nice. It has a creek, a little waterfall (great for those photography buffs), a lot of space to do things in, some shelter. We love it.
in summer if you are in Minneapolis then do visit the Minnehaha Park for the walk and a look at the falls. Enjoy the walk with your family and friends.
Really family friendly, fun place to spend an afternoon. Falls are pretty impressive in the spring when the water level in Minnehaha Creek is high. Also kind of interesting to see a frozen waterfall in the winter.
Relaxing. Place for weddings, hiking, biking, Surreys for rent. Miles of paths in the woods and along the parkway. A must when you come to Mpls. Right near the Hiawatha light rail system which goes downtown and airport and Mall of America.
It was winter and the facilities were under construction, so a lot of sidewalks were closed off. But the falls were pretty. It's a bit eerie though, the setting almost seemed like a zoo- you're walking along in a nice level park, then you come to a rail enclosing a waterfall and outflow.
