In my more recent time spent in Fargo I've gained a much greater appreciation for the parks of the…read moreFargo district. I didn't come to the realization before that there are so many darn parks here, and a lot of them are really pretty nice! Fun fact: the Fargo Parks website states that there are more than 150 parks just in Fargo! I mean, like what?!? Why do you even need that many parks for a place that's drowning in snow 3/4 of the year, and why would any other place need that many anyways unless it's a place with hundreds of thousands of people? Yeah, I don't have an answer either. Questions aside, Fargo has way too many parks, and as I've been spending more time outside biking and running it's been quite fun to explore them a little more. Out of 150+ parks, there are 3 that are all along the same path and called Milwaukee Trail Mini Parks, because the trail they lie along is the Milwaukee Trail (this is where you say, well duh!) So, this is park #1, also called Milkwaukee Trail North Park, because it's the furthest north park of the 3. Ever heard of an outdoor gym or a park gym? Well, that's what this place is! They have lifting machines at the park so you can get an outdoor workout in- very cool!! Definitely wouldn't guess Fargo would have one of those so it was definitely a pleasant discovery while out and about. There is some grassy space to do whatever you please, picnic tables, and of course a playground as well. I'd say this is the biggest and easily nicest park of the 3 Milwaukee's.

Aaand welcome to the creatively named Milwaukee Middle Park, aka Milwaukee Mini Park #2! That's…read moreright, one of 3 parks with the same name, but certainly not ranked the same. I'd give the North park (#1) the top spot for sure. This one would come in a close second. There's a regular old playground, the big long walking/ running path that passes the park, and even a small frolf course. The thing I found the coolest about the middle park, though, is that there is a "bike repair" station-- literally a little post that has wrenches, a tire pump, and all kind of other tools and gadgets to fix any kind of issue your bike may have, all free of charge. Pretty neat if you ask me!

I used to bring my kids to the playground all the time and we all would have a great time!read more

This is a fantastic park with a fantastic playground! This park has lots of grassy areas, nicely…read morepaved trails for biking or walking. There's a woodsy area with some worn trails, most likely for biking. There's a wooden lift bridge that crosses the river to Fargo. The playground is HUGE with something for every age group. There are interesting structures that I haven't seen at other playgrounds, and it's great imagination fuel for the kiddos. I also love that this playground is more accessible - there are structures for those in wheelchairs or limited mobility. The pathways through the park are also wheelchair accessible. I think the accessibility of the structures depends on individual needs. Extra bonus - lots of FREE parking.

Btw, sanctuaries are small businesses too, but they manage to use humane enclosures that suit the needs of the animals.

The best memories are those stumbled upon by accident! Just like the discovery of this bike path/…read morepark for me and my lovely momma. We went on an evening cruise and decided to try and explore a little bit, and ended up at Lions Conservancy Park, which is only a mile or two from our neighborhood. What I didn't realize about this park, though, is that they have some amazing mountain biking paths. It was so much fun! Lions Conservancy backs up to the Red River, and the bike path goes right along the river so it's hilly and woody and so cool. There's another path on the other side of the river in nearby Iwen park. The path is also super user friendly. At the beginning there's a map of it, and even a QR code you can scan to access the map electronically, and boy is it helpful. There's also constant markers on the path so you know you're still going the right way. For those who are more seasoned with mountain biking (ie: not me), there's some built in jumps and fun challenges. I stayed way clear of those, because just trying to make it along the path was plenty enough for me. It's about a mile total and it really gets you sweating. So besides the beautiful paths, there's really not a lot more to Lions Conservancy. You can sort of see the river from the parking lot. You can't walk far without being swarmed by bugs and other. But what a beautiful and delightful little path! Certainly not for the faint of heart but all the better when you complete it!

We've camped in around 75 campgrounds in the past 5 years and this took the most leveling effort of any. For a city park with utilities easily available, they could do better.

If you are smaller and need 30 amp, you are down by the river. I heard those sites are very unlevel but I did not go down to see as we were in the 50 amp area. We stayed one night. The staff was helpful as there was a huge mud puddle outside our door and they gave us boards so we could get in and out of our coach. Not many choices near Fargo. This is a very nice park but not really a campground for big rigs.
