Must-Do Fall Fun in the Alexandria Lakes Area

A collage of fall fun in the Alexandria Lakes Area: people picking pumpkins, walking among autumn trees, paddling a canoe on the lake, grape stomping at a festival, and enjoying a lakeside gathering amid vibrant fall foliage.

9. Long Prairie River State Water Trail

You can cover a lot of ground, or shall we say water, on the Long Prairie State Water Trail. Beginning at Lake Carlos, the river gently flows 96 miles through woods and farmlands east until it merges with the Crow Wing River near Motley, MN.
