Akin Riverside Park

Nice walk with a lot of historical information on the plaques along the trail. I met some really nice people who were fishing. Only negative is the emo looking teenagers in the tunnel smoking cigarettes and using filthy language.

I grew up in Anoka, it has changed a lot. Riverside Park with the pavilion is better than ever. The walking paths are great. So nice Anoka was able to retain this for the city. The grass is so green and the whole place is so we'll maintained. Some street parking, there is a free parking garage a short distance away. Lots of dogs and people walking even on this very cloudy afternoon. The Rum River is right there, you can get right down to it. They have a wood observation deck that goes right over the river, handicap accessible too. Stop on Main Street and get something to eat while you are there. 2 Scoops ice cream is just a short walk away. This is a great part of the charm of small town living. Treat yourself.

A lovely park hugging the banks of the Rum River just outside downtown Anoka.

Great park, nice trail right along the river, access to the river for humans or pets. There are always a ton of ducks around and geese so don't go if you're scared of them. There is a bridge to cross the river or out can exit out the tunnel to get across main st. Very pedestrian friendly as well as bike friendly.

One of my favorite parks and trails next to the river in down town Anoka, MN.

Excellent playground for young kids. It is near a road, but it's a dead end so not much traffic.

Well kept, quiet and peaceful. Beautiful veteran's memorial.

This is a park I grew up visiting. It has places to grill, a covered picnic area, and a pond area to sit at. It also features a small park and many signs depicting the history of Anoka. I recommend feeding ducks while picnicking. It's kinda buggy and muddy at times, though.

Beautiful park on the river, has really nice swings there you can sit and relax and watch the water.

A fabulous place to go very very quantril God's country nature at his best enjoyed going up and down the river fishing with two fabulous friends a wonderful place to visit
