    I love this place! All of the wonderful paths are dirt, wood-chip covered, and further down the path, a floating trail. Rocks to climb. Trees to admire. A lovely creek. This park has it all and it’s one of my all time favorites. Highly recommend!

    Peaceful and beautiful park. The floating pathway is unique when there is water around. People seem to respect the woods so there isn't liter, pretty clean park. Rock structures along the trail are worth exploring.

    This is a neat little park in Mankato. There are several trails including a floating boardwalk. Lovely trees and rock formations to look at.

    Fun little trail area! The kids love to explore the cliffs, make sure to take that path if you go to the park!

    Wonderful walking trails. Good workout with fluctuating elevation. The floating trail was my favorite part.

    The trails are very beautiful! Walking through Rasmussen Woods is an otherworldly experience. The forest is alive with the sights and sounds of the woods. This is a nice trail if you're taking your dogs or kids through the woods, because it has tons of shade and very few insects.

    Question is how magnificent it will be after the new remodeling jobs. So many kids & parents have enjoyed IT in the past. Truly a Treasure 4 kids classes. Beautiful tranquil nature experience. Butterflies & animals galore. Swamp & cat tails & bridges... All in walking distance. Gotta LOVE IT *****

    Beautiful and quiet scenery, lots of skeeters though so bug spray is a must. Trails were easily accessible, and the parking was plentiful.

👍👍 The equipment is in great shape and there are things for large and small kids. I wish there were more benches. There are small kids stuff, big kids stuff, volleyball nets, and a half court basketball court.
