While some of Minnesota’s most stunning vistas can be found at the end of hiking trails, it’s not always necessary to labor for the reward when it comes to MN views. On hot, humid days, it might comfort you to know that there are just as many epic views that you can see right from the road. These 15 are all absolutely amazing, and without a hike to get there, there’s no excuse not to see them!
1. The views of Minneapolis from the Stone Arch Bridge are truly stunning, and you can even see them from the nearby parking lot!
4. Equally, if not more, stunning are the views that can be found on the roads along the Mississippi. 61 around Red Wing and further south is particularly stunning.
15. The roads on Skyline in Duluth near Enger Tower provide views just as stunning as those that the tower has, and you only have to pull over and step out of the car to fully enjoy them!
