Maplewood State Park, Minnesota state park in Otter Tail County, US.
Maplewood State Park is a 9,250-acre preserve in Minnesota with eight major lakes set among forested hills. The landscape includes hardwood forests and prairie areas that alternate throughout the terrain, creating natural variety.
The preserve was established in 1963 to protect a natural transition zone between western prairies and eastern forests. This landscape forms part of Minnesota's original ecosystem and remains safeguarded for the future.
The park serves as a gathering place for outdoor activities deeply rooted in Minnesota traditions, where fishing and boating connect visitors to the region's natural resources and water-based heritage.
The park features 40 kilometers of trails for different skill levels and designated areas for swimming and fishing. Equipment rentals are available at the office, and specific zones allow horseback riding to support various outdoor pursuits.
From Hallaway Hill's summit, visitors see an extensive view of sugar maples, basswood, and oak trees that turn red and gold in autumn. This overlook provides a striking moment of natural beauty that many overlook when planning their visit.
