If climbing the hill isn’t your plan, you can drive up to the hilltop park from East 7th Street. Here, you can get panoramic views of downtown Red Wing and into Wisconsin toward the east. In the far distance on the right of the image, you can see the two silos of the Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant.
