Parks + Recreation

Boasting nearly 200 miles of recreational paths winding through the metro area, you'll see how we prize the outdoors. In fact, Minneapolis has one of the only fully urban scenic byways in the country.

With 22 city lakes and more than 170 parks, no Minneapolis resident lives more than 6 blocks from a park. Add Saint Paul's 160 parks into the mix and you've got one big urban playground.

In the midst of a bustling city environment, a commitment to green space provides ample opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
