The Upper and Lower Minneopa Falls on Minneopa Creek in Minneopa State Park are just a short walk from the parking lot and a perfect place for a picnic.

This is a great falls, and like most of them can really very during the year and depending on the season. Years ago when I came here you could hike from one side of the falls to the other in a nice loop, then about 12 years ago the trail collapsed near the picnic area. Now on this most recent visit they closed the stairs down to the falls base. Still worth a visit though! And go see the other part of the park with the windmill and bison!
