Northern Minnesota along Lake Superior gets a lot of attention for its natural beauty. Plenty of tourists flock the area in every season, and it’s no wonder. But it’s time we pay some attention to the southern part of the state. Southern Minnesota is gorgeous, and the coming warm months are the perfect time to give it some spotlight. One great way to take it all in is by taking a trolley ride through the region. The Rochester Trolley and Tour Company offers a fantastic wine trolley that is perfect for those who want to sightsee in southern Minnesota. Check it out:
