Baker Park Reserve offers oak savanna, rolling prairie, woodlands and wetlands with views over Lake Minnetonka—great for wide landscapes, seasonal color, wildflower and bird photography. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm side-light and long shadows; spring for blooms and migrating birds, fall for color, winter for stark snowy scenes. Small parking lot at Baker Park Rd; trails are well-marked but can be uneven—sturdy shoes recommended. No entry fee; weekdays are quieter.
