| Visit Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park to see natural wonders above & below ground. In the summer, beat the heat with a visit below ground. Explore the world of Mystery Cave with its stalactites, stalagmites & underground pools. Park naturalists provide tours of the cave throughout the summer & on weekends in the spring & fall. The temperature stays at a constant 48 degrees Fahrenheit. Above ground, stop by Historic Forestville, a restored 1800s village operated by the Minnesota Historical Society (MHS). Fish three blue-ribbon trout streams for brown trout. Take in the soft pastels of wildflowers in spring or listen to ruffed grouse drumming & wild turkeys gobbling. Hike or bring your horse to ride the ridge tops & stream valleys. Observe interesting geologic features along the way including sinkholes & dramatic Big Spring. In the fall, don't miss the bold colors of the forest. Winter invites visitors to ski or snowmobile the Bluff Country. |
