Minnehaha Call Log Mistakes You’re Making Today - Away State Journal
One of Minnesota’s most popular attractions is Minnehaha Falls, a waterfall smack dab in the center of Minneapolis. Popular with visitors, the waterfall and the park surrounding it see nearly a million visitors a year.
From a beautiful waterfall backdrop, disc golf and seafood snacks to bike paths and public gardens, there are so many activities at Minnehaha Park to enjoy.
Minnehaha Falls is a dynamic landscape that formed over 8,600 years ago when Glacial River Warren (an outlet of Glacial Lake Agassiz) suddenly discharged and carved an enormous valley through southern Minnesota.
The fifty-three-foot-high Minnehaha Falls was purchased by Minneapolis in 1889. It was the centerpiece of a new state park. The falls remain one of the state's most popular attractions for both residents and visitors. Their name is derived from the Dakota words mni for "water" and gaga for "falling" or "curling"—literally "water fall."
