Inspired by the theme “Around the Parks in 80 Days,” this all-ages, self-guided walk lets you discover the beauty, history, and variety of 20 of Saint Paul’s 184 parks and green spaces—at your own pace. Whether you’re a weekend wanderer, power walker or a daily stroller, there’s a park path for you.
