North of the road, the Cannon River forms the property's boundary, creating convenient access to the water and a location where a new owner may choose to clear a small area for seasonal camper use, subject to any applicable regulations and approvals. Imagine enjoying a morning coffee while listening to the river flow and watching wildlife move through the timber. On the south side of the road, the Cannon Valley Trail travels through the property. This well-known regional trail attracts outdoor enthusiasts from across Minnesota and provides convenient opportunities for biking, hiking, walking, and enjoying the changing seasons. Whether you're heading out for an evening bike ride or a fall walk through the hardwoods, having direct trail access is a unique feature that is difficult to duplicate. South of the trail, the property consists entirely of timber. The woods contain a strong network of well-worn deer trails and abundant sign throughout. During property visits, deer activity has been consistently observed, highlighting the property's appeal to hunters and wildlife enthusiasts alike. The surrounding habitat and nearby public lands help support healthy wildlife movement through the area. Adding to the recreational value, more than 450 acres of adjoining state land border the property to the south and west. This significantly expands the opportunities available for hiking, hunting, wildlife observation, and outdoor exploration beyond the property's boundaries. Outdoor recreation continues year-round in this part of the Cannon Valley. During warmer months, enjoy fishing, kayaking, tubing, hiking, and biking. When winter arrives, Welch Village Ski Area is only minutes away, offering skiing and snowboarding opportunities close to the property. Properties of this size with substantial river frontage, direct trail access, timber, and neighboring public land are increasingly difficult to find in today's market. Whether you're looking for a hunting property, a recreational getaway, a place to enjoy the Cannon River, or a basecamp for exploring the Driftless Region, this Goodhue County property offers a unique combination of features. This property is not buildable.
