Crosby Farm, Nature park along Mississippi River, Saint Paul, United States.
The park features 6.7 miles of paved trails through floodplain forest, connecting visitors to both the Mississippi River and nearby woodlands.
Thomas Crosby established the 160-acre farm in 1858, operating it until 1886 as the largest agricultural property in the West End district.
The park serves as a primary location for birdwatching enthusiasts who gather to observe seasonal migrations along the Mississippi River corridor.
Visitors can access multiple facilities including picnic shelters, boat launches, fishing spots, and a bicycle repair station at the north entrance.
The park contains two connected water bodies, Crosby Lake and Upper Lake, which create natural habitats within Saint Paul's largest natural reserve.
