About this adventure
Located in St. Anthony, Silverwood Park is the Three Rivers Park District's premier arts-and-nature regional park. Over Thanksgiving weekend, families can walk the paved 1.5-mile trail around Silver Lake dotted with large-scale outdoor sculptures, poetry stations, and bird-watching blinds. Inside the Silverwood Visitor Center, kids can participate in free self-guided autumn art kits, warm up near the fireplace, and enjoy hot cocoa from the coffee bar. Wide paved trails make stroller pushing effortless, and heated modern family restrooms are easily accessible.
