Regardless of how you choose to picnic, there is one spot in Minnesota that is known for being a particularly beautiful picnic spot.

Here is what Taste of Home had to say about the best place to have a picnic in Minnesota:

"A 53-foot waterfall, river vistas, limestone bluffs, disc golf and bike rental– Minnehaha Park has it all! You’ll find loads of enviable spots for your finger foods, but anywhere with a view of the falls can’t be beat. And don’t forget your four-legged friends. Minnehaha has a dog park, too."
