It seems that every few weeks, we discover a new-to-us Minnesota waterfall that is just begging to be explored. They aren’t all as popular as Gooseberry Falls or as easy to access as Minnehaha. But they are overflowing with natural beauty and are well worth visiting for anyone who loves waterfalls. The next time you want to go waterfalling, consider a trip to the Mankato area. Not only will you find the famous rushing waters of Minneopa Falls, but you’ll also discover the little-known Minnemishinona Falls if you look hard enough. Listed below is everything you need to know about this hidden waterfall, which happens to be one of the tallest waterfalls near me.
