This trail was the reason that my wife and I came to Decorah. It is about 17 miles long and goes around the whole town. It varies from city to farmland to trout stream. We walked the trail and had a great time. There are a few changes in elevation, but all in all it is not a hard trail to walk

Phelps Park is always a great place to hang out. It's great for getting out and hiking in nature, bringing kids to play, have a picnic, or to relax and work or read a book on one of the benches or in one of the shelters.

I visited the springs with my friend and her toddler twins. The path to the spring was stroller friendly and lovely to see. There were some stairs to climb up to the tops of the spring, but we didn't venture that this time. I am eager to go back when the trees full of leaves.

If you enjoy fishing for trout - you will love this fish hatchery! We enjoyed a FUN day at the trout fish hatchery!!! Enjoyed feeding the fish (bring quarters!) and hiking/seeing the surrounding area - so beautiful and scenic (and the bonus of seeing the incredibly huge eagles nest - located nearby the hatchery!)!!!

We visited Malanaphy Springs for a hike with our dog to see the waterfall while visiting Decorah. A 1-mile trail leads along the trail and ends at Malanaphy Springs. The waterfall drops into Upper Iowa River from here. Can't see much of the waterfall from the top and it's a tricky scramble down to the base, but beautiful views of the waterfall and river. The spring originates from a fissure in the cliffs above. It's a steep climb up loose gravel to see the cliffs and the spring. Definitely worth a visit if in Decorah and much less crowded than more popular attractions.

I came here with my family (husband and two sons). It is right down the road from the Dunning Springs waterfall, so we got to see both in a short amount of time. The cave goes is narrow at first, but opens up into two larger rooms, where ice can be seen. We also climbed up along the cliffs and got to explore a few smaller caves, which was pretty cool. It was definitely worth the stop!
