Hiking

They want it to attract hikers like the Superior Hiking Trail and Appalachian Trail do.

The short, semi-challenging hike is well worth it!

Have you found one of these walking sticks? They usually show up at a trailhead on different hiking trails across the Northland. I got the scoop on why they are there, and who's behind it.

If you like to get outdoors, make sure to visit the most scenic hike in Wisconsin.

Popular Mechanics doesn't give any criteria on how they determined their list of most incredible hiking trails, but we're not going to argue.

It was such a nice day on Monday I decided to take my dog Norman for a walk through the Bob Cross Nature Reserve in Sauk Rapids.

Most recently, my family vacationed in northern Georgia a few weeks ago where we used the AllTrails app to guide us on some hikes along the Appalachian Trail.

It's about time to break out the hiking boots again!

My wife, dog and I ended up hiking 4.5 of the 9.1 miles over 1.5 hours. Elm Creek Park features a whole variety of landscapes -- we hiked through woods, along a stream, through some wetlands and through some open fields. Despite the heat, our hike was super fun and enjoyable, and we'll definitely be using the AllTrails app and looking forward to hiking again soon!

(I realize this may sound like an endorsement -- it's not! I'm just a big fan of the AllTrails app and think it's a great tool if you're looking for great hiking, biking or running trails around Minnesota or beyond!)

Fresh air is good for the soul. There is nothing better than that burst of outside air after being cooped up in the house all day.

The mighty Mississippi starts here, we have over 10,000 lakes, and a part of the state lines up with Lake Superior. But that isn't our only geological feature.

Are you bold enough to add Minnesota's most haunted hiking trail to your summer to-do list?
