Parks & Forests
Untamed natural beauty covers much of the Minnesota landscape. The state has one of the nation's great, diverse state park systems with more than 227,000 acres in parks and recreation areas, and over 5,000 miles of biking trails. Voyageurs National Park is traversable only by water. Minnesota is also home to the Chippewa and Superior national forests, the latter of which includes the famed Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
