Directions:
Drive on Freeway I-35 to Hinckley, Minnesota. Exit east at Hinckley onto State Highway 48. Go 14 miles and resort is on the south (right) just before the St. Croix State Park entrance.

With twenty-five large (and many smaller) fishing lakes, five rivers, and more than one hundred miles of trout streams in the area, Pathfinder Village is not only an ideal vacation destination, but a fisherman’s paradise.

The small town of Hinckley came to the nation’s attention in 1894 when the worst recorded forest fire in history destroyed the town, more than 400 square miles of adjoining forests, and took 400 lives. To learn more about the devastation, you can visit the Hinckley Fire Museum, where there are pictures, newspaper accounts, and actual items from the fire on display. Housed in a restored railroad depot, the museum also contains an 1890’s furnished depot agent’s living quarters. For your gaming pleasure, Hinckley offers the Grand Casino Hinckley, complete with slot and video poker machines, blackjack tables, and live entertainment daily.

A day trip to the west will take you to the Father Hennepin State Park at Isle. The 316-acre park was named for Father Louis Hennepin, who was captured along with his party by Native Americans in 1860. Winter visitors will enjoy excellent cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in this area. Drive over to Onamia to see beautiful Mille Lacs Lake, with its more than 150 miles of shoreline. Reportedly, there are also more than 1,000 Native American burial mounds in the vicinity. While you’re in town, you might want to try your luck at the Grand Casino Mille Lacs or visit the 10,585-acre Mille Lacs Kathio State Park. Of interest to Native Americans is the fact that even though the Sioux Indians have lived at nearby Kathio for centuries, in 1750 they lost a battle to the Chippewa, forcing them to make their homes on the plains.

To the north of the lake is McGregor, where a visit to the 18,124 acre Rice Lake National Wildlife Refuge offers you the opportunity to see white-tailed deer, bear, grouse, ducks, and geese sheltered in their natural habitats.
