A gentle paved trail along the Mississippi River offering sweeping river vistas, downtown Wabasha architecture, boat traffic, bluffs and seasonal wildlife (notably bald eagles in winter). Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side-light on water and facades; fall for foliage; winter for ice textures and raptors. Accessible, mostly flat and stroller-friendly; free parking at downtown trailheads; no entry fee. Weekdays are quieter; expect variable river light and barges for dynamic subjects.
