Empire Builder Day Trip & Night Hiking! - Winona MN

It’s disappointing that our time in Winona got cut short due to the Empire Builder being delayed by freight trains, but we still made the most of it! It’s a trip we’ll have to attempt again at some point in the future, and hopefully be able to do more next time around.
Sugar Loaf Bluff is one of the most iconic trails in Winona, and even with the sun setting, we encountered a few other people on the trail. We mentioned in the video that it’s a 1.2 mile out-and-back, and just wanted to clarify that it’s 1.2 miles total, just over a half mile each way.

Sorry that your visit in Winona was cut short with the delay! Hope you'll get back again and do it again.

Thank you! We’d love to see more of the town so hopefully we can give this trip another try next summer/fall.
