Review:

The scenic town of Red Wing has long been one of the most popular day trips from Minneapolis, and once you've been here, it's not hard to understand why. The quaint downtown streets are dotted with Victorian homes, elegant lampposts, and shops with brick facades, and although it's easy to spend an afternoon simply strolling around, other attractions include the Goodhue County Historical Museum, the Red Wing Shoes Museum, and the nearby Falconer Vineyards. If you want to get some exercise, you can cycle along the scenic Cannon Valley Trail or hike up to Barn Bluff for some wonderful views of the town.
