Paddle Huntington Mine

Ironton, Minnesota

Description

Whether you're stoked on mountain biking or want to get out on a canoe or SUP, Cuyuna is an awesome outdoor rec spot. There's plenty of parking and bathrooms near the landing here, plus handicap-accessible ramps to the water and adaptable trails nearby (great for people with mobility devices and kid bike trailers!). Plus, you can fish for rainbow and brown trout here!

I recommend stopping for the wild rice and chickpea burger at the Croft Pub in Crosby before or after your ride/paddle. The Hudson is a cafe in Ironton (even closer to the trails) that has great coffee and food. I loved the veggie wrap. Both restaurants have gluten-free options. If you want sweets, go to Victual in Crosby for some incredible ice cream made on site. Church basement lemon bar is my fave but complex strawberry is a close second!

The first is the easiest, and it's in the main parking lot for the Cuyuna Mountain Biking ran...

Just off of Highway 35 near Sandstone, Minnesota, Banning State Park provides several areas to explore including the Kettle River, Historic Sandstone Quarry, and my favorite - Wolf Creek Falls. While the Kettle River is a popular attraction for hikers as well as kayakers, the scenic hike to Wolf Creek Falls is well worth the trip. Added time to explore other areas of Wolf Creek is highly recom...
