Warm weather is finally here! Now it’s time to get back out into the great outdoors. We’ve picked out some of the best outdoor spots in Eagan to hike, bike, and play all summer long.
1. Parks & Trails
A day at the park can become a lifelong memory. Spanning 2,000 acres, Lebanon Hills Regional Park offers miles of approachable hiking trails that are perfect for family-friendly strolls. If biking is more your speed, this park features 12 miles of mountain biking trails for riders of all abilities, from beginners to seasoned mountain bikers looking for their next challenge. For an experience that blends art and nature, Caponi Art Park showcases stunning sculptures, hosts fun community events, and delights visitors with 60 acres of rolling hills and wooded trails.
2. Golfing
Spend a relaxing day on the green at Lost Spur Golf Course. Across this 9-hole golf course, golfers of all skill levels play along beautiful fairways and try their hand at an array of challenging shots. Featuring a 25,000 sq. ft. all-grass driving range, golfers can work on their chipping, putting, and target practice. Plus, every round comes with stunning views of the city and the valley. After you’ve put in a good round, don’t forget to kick back in the golfer’s lounge and pick up a few things at the golf shop before you head out.
3. Pickleball
Whether you’re looking for formal leagues to join or sneaking in a quick game, you can bring your ball and paddle to any one of 20+ outdoor pickleball courts located in parks across Eagan. If you prefer to smash, nosh, and recover all in one spot, Chip’s Pickleball Club is a pickler’s paradise, offering a 12-court indoor facility with an on-site café, sauna, and cold plunge. Massive garage doors that open let you enjoy the great outdoors while playing your favorite pastime!
