Minneapolis, Minnesota, is accustomed to snow and cold weather, and people there have learned how to get the best out of it. This means that paying a visit to one of the “Twin Cities” during winter can be a much more pleasurable experience than you might expect. If you are visiting Minneapolis this winter, here is what you should do.
Go Ice Skating
You’ll find ice skating rinks all across Minneapolis in the winter. Rent a pair of skates and spend an hour or two practicing your skills.
Explore Ice Castles
Once the cold weather sets in, ice castles take over Minneapolis’ Long Lake Regional Park. Explore their icy chambers and join in on the fun.
Hit Cross Country Skiing Trails
During winter, many of Minneapolis’ hiking trails transform into cross-country skiing trails. The activity, which is super popular among locals, gives you a perfect chance to experience some of Minneapolis’ scenic sights.
Try Ice Fishing
Minneapolis lakes offer a perfect stage for ice fishing. If you are looking for a relaxing activity, this is one you should try.
Enjoy a Beer and a Juicy Lucy
After you get tired of winter activities, escape the cold in one of Minneapolis’ highly-rated bars. There you can enjoy great crafted beers and a city’s food staple, the Juicy Lucy burger.
