Things to do at Itasca State Park

I had a blast visiting Itasca State Park I visited Lake Itasca, the Headwaters Center, the Headwaters of the Mississippi River, and did so much hiking!

I also went on their wilderness drive and visited the Douglas Lodge Restaurant (not pictured). I had so much fun visiting this place and definitely recommend! I have never thought about where the Mississippi River starts, but it’s right here in Minnesota! It’s a great time to go in fall and you need to see the nature and the colors! Have you been here?
