Green Oakdale

Do you like spending time in the great outdoors? You’re in luck; there are plenty of beautiful parks, playgrounds, trails, open spaces, nature preserves, and athletic fields in Oakdale. Tanners Lake Park is a favorite in town, especially during the warmer months. The lake’s beach is perfect for playing in the sand, boating, swimming, fishing, sunbathing, and having a splashing-good time. So stick your toes in the water and enjoy that Minnesota summer.

Lovers of the outdoors should also be sure to head over to the Oakdale Nature Preserve. This park is just about as beautiful as they come. You can come here to bird watch, bike, hike, meander through the woods, or play tennis. During the winter months, this is an excellent place for cross-country skiing. If you’re looking for a little education with your nature, check out the Oakdale Discovery Center. The center has interactive exhibits, an aquarium, and lots of information about the preserve. Are you a history buff? The park also has a historic, one-room schoolhouse that’ll give you a little peek at the past.

If you like your outdoor fun to be well-organized, the Parks and Recreation Department has lots of sports teams to join and special events to celebrate throughout the year. Visit their homepage for more information.
