Hiking at Temperance River State Park

Hiking at Temperance River State Park

The Temperance River Gorge Trail includes six stunning waterfalls in just under one mile. Several of these waterfalls are formed from potholes, and this hike is a hidden Minnesota treasure. For a longer hike (two miles), add the Upper Falls trail on the west-side of Temperance River. For a long day hike, head to Cross River along the Superior Hiking Trail. Don’t forget to stop at Cross Falls along MN-61 - no hiking is required to experience this gushing falls.
