About Bend in the River Regional Park
Purchased in 2002 from the family of Carlton Graves, this 289-acre former farm offers visitors a variety of experiences. Explore the Mississippi River overlooks, or take the trail down to the river's edge. See the restored prairie, then take a trail into the woods. Start or end your visit with a look at the farmstead and plaques explaining the use of each building. Throughout the park you will find interpretive storyboards describing the human and ecological history of the area. And don't miss the natural play area, designed just for Bend in the River Park. Have a picnic in the shelter, which is available for reservations.
