Glacial Valley Park Trail Connection Completed
Construction is complete on SWWD’s new 0.4-mile accessible trail along the western edge of Glacial Valley Park. This new recreational trail completes Washington County’s vision of a continuous trail network extending from Lake Elmo Park Reserve to Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park that does not require the use of any road shoulders.

Construction is complete on SWWD’s new 0.4-mile accessible trail along the western edge of Glacial Valley Park. This new recreational trail completes Washington County’s vision of a continuous trail network extending from Lake Elmo Park Reserve to Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park that does not require the use of any road shoulders.
From here, SWWD can turn its attention to a larger vision for a future Glacial Valley Park interpretive center and pavilion. While preliminary concept plans have been in place for several years, the District is waiting for development of land to the west to proceed to provide road and utility access to its property with the planned extension of Glacial Valley Road. Stay tuned for more updates in the coming years! For now, residents can enjoy the new trail and restored prairie views found at Glacial Valley Park.
