Baker Park Reserve

Description: Baker Park Reserve is part of the Three Rivers Park District System It is about 20 miles west of downtown Minneapolis and is constructed on a rolling prairie that loops around a small lake. If you wanted to experience what Lewis and Clark must have experienced, you will like this trail because that's how isolated you will feel. The trail was rebuilt and resurfaced in the early spring of 2001.
