Father Hennepin Bluff Park

Follow a path from the east-bank bluff down toward the Mississippi for a quieter river-level stop and a different view of the Stone Arch Bridge and downtown.

Why go

This park offers a different vantage on the central riverfront. Its path descends from the bluff to the river edge, so it works as a short walk after crossing Stone Arch Bridge and gives time to see the gorge and downtown skyline from the east bank.

What to look for

  • Take the path down from the bluff toward the Mississippi riverbank.

Useful to know

  • Allow about 40 minutes for the path down from the bluff to the Mississippi edge.
  • The park is beside the east end of Stone Arch Bridge, so continue there after crossing from Mill Ruins Park.
