Snowshoeing in Baudette, MN

Zippel Bay State Park offers 12 miles of maintained trails, for winter enthusiasts and curious explorers who want to adventure through scenic areas. Snowshoers don’t really need a trail to explore; they simply need snow! Free rental equipment is available through the DNR. There are various areas of wilderness to explore around Lake of the Woods, starting with Zippel Bay State Park, Pine Island State Forest, and Beltrami Island State Forest. Have fun snowshoeing around our beautiful Baudette MN resorts and wilderness as it gets covered under a beautiful snow blanket.

Snowmobiling around Baudette MN resorts

Snowmobiling in the Lake of the Woods area offers some of the best trails in Minnesota. Enjoy hundreds of miles of true wilderness trails. Go as far up as the Northwest Angle, and up north to International Falls. Some of our trails even go into other states, such as the Kittson Country trail that goes into North Dakota. Our area is unique thanks to Lake of the Woods and the Rainy River, which both provide plenty of ice riding opportunities. Some of the trails are DNR funded. The State of Minnesota, Lake of the Woods County, Koochiching County, and private landowners make our groomed trails possible.

Cross-Country Skiing around River Bend’s Resort

Zippel Bay State Park maintains over 12 miles of groomed ski trails through the winter months. The trails wind through vast scenic areas of pine, spruce and birch trees. You can enjoy the gently sloping geology of the park. You can purchase seasonal ski passes at Zippel Bay State Park. All cross-country skiers, on ski trails in state parks or forests, or on state grant-in-aid trails, must have a Minnesota Ski Pass. Ski passes must be signed and carried with you at all time when skiing. The fee for the ski pass is to help support the maintenance of Minnesota’s cross-country ski trail system.

Make sure you book your stay at one of the best Baudette MN resorts, today. Our River Bend’s Resorts will host your family winter getaway, or thrilling snowmobile excursions, or anything in between. Minnesota also referred to as Minne-snow-ta, is the perfect winter wonderland getaway for winter enthusiasts.
