    Tips

    Hiking

    The island is situated between the Minnesota River on one side and the Mississippi River on the other. It was regarded as a sacred place by the Dakota Indians, as it marks the point where these two great rivers converge. One can observe a subtle distinction where they meet, as the Minnesota River carries sediment and has a slightly muddier color compared to the clearer waters of the Mississippi River.
