A Minnesota Winter is not for the faint of heart. Last winter, Minneapolis, was one of several cities in the “Polar Vortex”, known for its dangerously, frigid temperatures. Although most Minnesotans have to grunt through the pain of winter, in summer, there are plenty of parks to hike, bike, walk, and enjoy the warmth. Another fun aspect of daily Minneapolis living, is the coffee shops. If you are a coffee or tea lover, there are so many new coffee shops popping up around the city.

The city of Minneapolis began integrating sustainability practices into City decision making in 2003. The city’s commitment to making Minneapolis pedestrian friendly means you have several accessible transportation modes when it comes to moving around the city; the METRO light-rail transit (LRT), the Metro Transit with 120 bus routes in the Twin Cities and surrounding areas; the Nice Ride bike share program; and more than 77 biking, walking, running, and dog walking trails covering 780 miles to explore.

Minneapolis is a great city for biking. There are many paths and trails in the city. Some of the trails connect various lakes. The lakes also have paths around for biking and walking. The scenery along the bike trails varies from residential settings to being completely immersed in nature. Minneapolis is a very bike friendly city.
