Setting

Fairly secluded

Lake Maria State Park preserves Big Woods forest remnants on glacially-formed terrain in Wright County, designed to provide wilderness recreation near Minneapolis–Saint Paul. The park emphasizes backcountry experience with 17 hike-in backpacking sites and 3 camper cabins (accessed by 0.5–1 mile trails), plus two road-accessible primitive group camps. Two lakes—Maria and Bjorkland—support fishing for crappie, bass, bluegill, and northern pike. The park offers 14 miles of hiking trails (6 open to horseback riding), groomed cross-country skiing, and is notable for its population of endangered Blanding's turtles and 205 bird species.

  • Well separated here, with the nearest through road 0.9 miles off.
