Why go

Gold Medal Park is a deliberate green counterpoint to the surrounding mills, museum and theater. The observation mound and spiral path create a focused short visit, while its Mill District location makes it easy to slot between the Guthrie, Mill City Museum and riverfront.

What to look for

  • Climb the spiral walkway around the central observation mound for a city view.

Useful to know

  • Allow about 35 minutes for the spiral climb and city views.
  • The park sits between the Guthrie and the Mill District riverfront; the conservancy asks visitors not to stage events or climb sculptures.
