Minnesota's
17,000 miles of snowmobile trails offer a wide variety of environments.
In the northern part of the state, the trails wind through snowy
woodlands dotted with lakes and streams. The central region of
Minnesota is wide-open prairie, while the southeastern bluffs
feature limestone cliffs. Minnesota's trail system runs from the
state's more densely populated areas all the way to its remote,
sparsely populated wilderness, providing sledders the opportunity
to either get away from it all, or go for a quick ride close to
home. There are plenty of small towns along the trails offering
food, lodging, equipment rental and other services.
