Enjoy Eagan Road Trip Itinerary – Part 3: The Southside
What a road trip journey this mini blog series has been so far! But don’t worry, we’re only halfway there. This week we’re talking about all the amazing things to do on the south side of Eagan. This week’s itinerary has a variety of activities that we think everyone will enjoy!

Pack up the kiddos and explore the Tropics Trail, Wells Fargo Family Farm, Russa’s Grizzly Coast, the Northern Trail, the Minnesota Trail and Discovery Bay all at the Minnesota Zoo! Don’t have kids? Or love your kids but maybe want to experience the zoo kid free? You’ll want to be sure to check out Zoo After Hours once a month June through August.

Talk about exhilarating! Learn how or practice your axe throwing skills at Minnesota Axe. Minnesota’s first solely and only competitive axe throwing venues sanctioned by the international axe throwing federation. This professional team will put you at ease while using their 12 lanes to hurl hatchets, eat, drink and compete or try it just for fun.

After the adrenaline wears off, take it easy with a movie in some of the most comfortable luxury theater seats you will ever experience. In addition to their reclining chairs, enjoy gourmet snacks, reserved seating, and in-seat service. Maybe even treat yourself to a few other upscale amenities such as valet parking! Whatever you do, don’t forget the popcorn!

Start your day with a creative spin at Caponi Art Park! Where you can adventure through 60 acres of rolling wooded hills and trails enjoying one-of-a-kind sculptures along the way. Be sure to check out their website to catch some live music in their outdoor amphitheater!

Who’s ready for a little patio fun? Guests love Casper’s patio in the summertime! Known for their famous steaks, seafood, onion rings, and 1933 recipe au gratin potatoes, your taste buds are sure to be satisfied if you choose to dine at Casper’s to round out your day!

The moment you walk into Doolittle’s cozy entryway your mouth will start to water. Their woodfire grill fills the entire restaurant with a scrumptious aroma that will make you want to order one of everything on the menu. A great place to relax and refuel after an amazing day of enjoying Eagan!
