Fall is in the air in Minnesota. It’s almost time to hunker down for another cold winter. But before the ice and snow settle in, it’s nice to get out in the sun just a few more times. The fall season is short, but it’s full of wonderful activities that will help you make the most of it. One of the best activities is taking a riverboat tour down the St. Croix River. You’ll find fresh air, sunshine, and beautiful scenery as you cruise through the water. Read on below to learn more about this wonderful autumn activity:
Taylors Falls Scenic Boat Tours is in Taylors Falls, Minnesota, along the St. Croix River. This lovely tour makes a wonderful day trip for most Minnesotans at every time of year. But it's especially beautiful in the fall.
The Taylors Falls area is absolutely beautiful, with tree-covered cliffs that rise over the river. In the autumn, the trees are bright with orange, yellow, and red leaves.
Tour visitors step aboard one of the company's old-fashioned riverboats. These beauties have plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the view. Will you sit on the open-air top deck or the covered lower deck?
Of course, you'll also get a great view of the surrounding leaves. The St. Croix River area is one of the most beautiful places in Minnesota in the fall!
The company has several daily cruises throughout the fall. If you're looking for a unique activity to get outdoors this season, consider a scenic river cruise!
