City of Minnetonka, MN
Home MenuMinnetonka Community Parks
In 1959, the City of Minnetonka received plans for its first park, Gro Tonka. Today, the city maintains five community parks and 44 neighborhood parks - and Gro Tonka is still with us.
Minnetonka’s natural resources are its distinguishing feature, and the one feature of the city residents cherish most. From the headwaters of Minnehaha Creek to the many wetlands and forested areas, Minnetonka provides an oasis of natural beauty amid a major metropolitan area. More than 20 percent of the city’s land area is wetlands and lakes, with more than 268 acres of maintained parkland in 50 parks; more than 100 miles of trails; and 1,000 acres of natural public open spaces.
