Hiking
Despite its name, the Nine Mile Creek actually flows for 15 miles before eventually emptying into the Minnesota River. It was historically named by soldiers from Fort Snelling who traveled nine miles southwest along the Old Shakopee Road to reach a crossing point on the creek. This highlight is located where both Nine Mile Creek, and the Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail, cut through the southwest corner of Bredesen Park.
