About Carley State Park

Bluebell flowers cover the ground here each spring, a bloom the park is specifically known for. The land supports picnicking, camping, and hiking as its main recreational uses. It offers a quiet stretch of Minnesota woodland with trails for walking and spots set aside for overnight stays, drawing visitors who want to see the wildflowers in season or spend time outdoors on foot.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
