Where is a good frozen waterfall hike in Minnesota?
With waterfalls, rivers, and lakes around every corner, you are sure to find some beautiful natural wonders in Minnesota - even in the wintertime. Here are a few frozen waterfall hikes in Minnesota we think you'll love:
- Judge C.R. Magney State Park, Grand Marais, MN: The North Shore of Lake Superior is a wonderful area for discovering frozen waterfalls in the winter. This state park isn't one of the most heavily-used parks in Northern Minnesota so that means you'll be able to enjoy lots of peace and quiet - especially in the winter. Take the Devil's Kettle Trail along the Brule River for about a mile until you see the sign for Devil's Kettle Falls. You'll pass the Upper Falls first then continue to the Lower Falls, which is the Devil's Kettle. It looks like a frozen churning cauldron.
- Minneopa State Park, Mankato, MN: This lovely state park is only about an hour and a half southwest of Minneapolis. Minneopa Creek flows through the park and plummets over a sandstone cliff about 39 feet to land in a pool below the bluff. This beautiful waterfall often freezes over in the wintertime with long jagged icicles. A frozen Minneopa Falls is an incredible sight that should be on your hiking bucket list.
- Ramsey Park, Redwood Falls, MN: This Southern Minnesota gem is about 115 miles from Minneapolis. It is often called the Little Yellowstone of Minnesota. In this small 256-acre rural MN park there is a surprising 33-foot waterfall hidden away in the woods along a rocky ridgeline. When Ramsey Falls freezes over it becomes an other-worldly sight that you have to see to believe.
Minnesota has many waterfalls from Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis to some of Northern Minnesota's finest in Gooseberry Falls.
