Father Hennepin Bluff Park

Father Hennepin Bluff Park is distinguished by the dramatic limestone bluff that rises above the Mississippi River. This eight-acre site sits on the east bank of the river, wedged between the St. Anthony Falls Laboratory and the Stone Arch Bridge. The park features a distinct separation between its upper section, which holds lawns and a performance pavilion, and a lower, natural trail area reached by a wooden stairway that descends toward the water.
