About this adventure
Regarded as Minnesota's most breathtaking botanical holiday showcase, Winter Lights covers the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum in Chanhassen with custom-engineered floral and nature-inspired light displays. Walk the half-mile accessible path to experience the 20-foot poinsettia tree, sparkling willow tree sculptures, and an interactive musical walk-through light tunnel. Warm up by outdoor fire pits with s'mores packages, enjoy live acoustic holiday sets inside the heated Oswald Visitor Center, and marvel at intricate miniature holiday train layouts crafted from natural bark and pinecones. Timed entry tickets ensure peaceful, uncrowded paths for families pushing strollers.
