Celebrate the fishing opener weekend with a guided hike to the sandy shores of Lake Pepin! Join us at Frontenac State Park’s Sand Point Trail to hike through a floodplain forest and wet meadow while learning about the ecology of the lands adjoining Lake Pepin and the flora and fauna that call them home.
The event will begin at the Sand Point parking lot off US 61 at 1:00 p.m.; the total distance hiked will be approximately 1.7 miles over mostly level ground. In the event of intense spring flooding along the Mississippi, an alternate location will be chosen for the event. In the event of inclement weather, the event will be cancelled. This event is free.
