Splash Into Summer Fun in Red Wing

Summer excitement begins with water! Families can dive into fun as the local water park opens for the season, offering slides, pools, and plenty of opportunities to beat the heat. For younger children or a quick afternoon adventure, the splash pad at Athletic Field Park is a favorite community gathering spot, where fountains and sprays provide endless entertainment.

Turn your outing into a full-day adventure with a park hop through some of Red Wing’s most beloved green spaces. Bay Point Park offers a scenic setting along the Mississippi River with expansive playgrounds, picnic areas, and room to roam. At Colvill Park, families can enjoy river views, playground equipment, open fields, and one of the area’s newest points of pride—state-of-the-art pickleball courts that are quickly becoming a favorite for players of all ages. A.P. Anderson Park rounds out the trio with another outstanding playground and plenty of open space for kids to run, climb, and explore.

Beyond these signature parks, Red Wing is home to an impressive collection of community green spaces and recreational amenities waiting to be discovered. Challenge the family to a round of disc golf at Memorial Park while taking in breathtaking views from atop Sorin’s Bluff. Prefer classic outdoor games? You’ll find horseshoe pits, tennis courts, basketball courts, walking trails, and open recreation areas scattered throughout the community.

What makes Red Wing special isn’t just the variety of activities—it’s how easy it is to spend an entire day exploring. Start with a splash, enjoy lunch at a local eatery, spend the afternoon park hopping, and cap off the evening with a sunset overlooking the river. Every corner of the community offers another opportunity to play, relax, and reconnect.

This summer, pack the towels, lace up your sneakers, and discover why Red Wing is where family fun comes naturally. From water adventures to playgrounds, pickleball to panoramic views, there’s something for every age to enjoy—and countless reasons to come back again.
