Riverside Park, a two-level park adjacent to the Mississippi River, is one of the most historic parks in the city of Minneapolis. According to the Park Board website, the park was purchased by the city in 1883, and the stone bathhouse was built in 1933.

Along the Mississippi River is West River Parkway, part of the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway. The parkway runs along a natural gorge of the Mississippi River, and provides a scenic space for training.
