Explore Minnehaha Creek at Autumn Outing on October 14

Enjoy a fun fall outing – and while you’re at it, help develop the Minnehaha Parkway Regional Trail Master Plan. This Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) plan will set a vision and priorities for future park improvements and management along the trail for the next 20 to 30 years.

Gather family, friends and neighbors of all ages to join in some autumn fun along Minnehaha Parkway and Minnehaha Creek. MPRB staff will be on hand to help people explore and learn about one of the woodsier stretches of the creek, between South Humboldt and Lyndale avenues.

Event highlights 

  • Participate in a guided nature hike
  • Make an artwork using materials from nature
  • Bike along the trails (some bikes available to borrow)
  • Hang out in the sun (or shade)
  • Offer your thoughts and opinions on the future of parkland along Minnehaha Creek, as well as other current MPRB planning projects in the area
  • Enjoy light refreshments
