Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail (MN)

Submitted by Buzz Burrell on Wed, 03/25/2020 - 05:22pm
Description

Unlike its name would suggest, Nine Mile Creek is actually 15 miles from its headwaters at Minnetog Lake to the Minnesota River. This regional trail was constructed to meander alongside the creek as it flows through the watershed communities of Hopkins, Minnetonka, Edina, Richfield and Bloomington. It’s a 10-foot wide asphalt trail that welcomes walkers, bikers and others using non-motorized transport to immerse themselves in the area’s diverse natural beauty, as well as connect with each other across neighborhoods and jurisdictions.
