    Beautiful park with rich history. The Souix Quartzite and The Big Souix River were the two main factors in the development of the city. Beautiful views from hundreds of vantage points. If history doesn’t interest you, you can just relax, listening to the water falling on the rocks below.

    Awesome park with great waterfalls. Be sure to walk around to see the different views. Lots of photo opportunities. There are also around 15 goose which can be observed. Some of them have also baby-goose - so cute and funny. The area is very clean. Ideal for couples and families. But also if you want to parcours (I saw two guys climbing and jumping around). Highly recommended.

    Amazing views and historical information and signs. Good for family with kids. There is AccessAbility paths all around the locations. A must to visit site once you are around. It is free with free parking as well. The people in all the town are friendly and welcoming.
