Here’s a fun and free activity to add to your summer bucket list! Ranger On Call audio tours are a great way to explore one of our national parks, the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area.

Follow the directions at each Ranger On Call station and use your phone to hear the unique stories of our national park on the Mississippi River.

There are six different tours:

  • Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary (St. Paul, 0.95-mile trail, walking only)
  • Coldwater Spring (St. Paul, 0.8-mile trail, walking only)
  • Downtown Minneapolis (2.6-mile trail, walking or bicycling)
  • Downtown St. Paul (4-mile trail, walking or bicycling)
  • Fort Snelling (St. Paul, 5.5-mile trail, walking or bicycling)
