Monticello, Minnesota - Monticello has retained it's small town atmosphere, while offering some
big town amenities. Just look what we have to offer.
Monticello is situated on the mighty Mississippi
River. Take a stroll or grab a fishing pole and relax by the banks of Ol' Man
River.
During the winter months, Monticello is
host to over 1500 Trumpeter Swans. Feeding daily at 11 a.m., these once rare beauties flourish on the
Mississippi River during the winter months. Over 1200 pounds of food per day keep the swans coming back to
us.
26 city parks will meet your family's
activity needs or your own personal quest for some quite time. Just 1 mile to the west, 1,200 acres of pristine
YMCA park await your trekking ambitions. Drive just a few more miles west to visit beautiful Lake Maria State
Park. Activities include snowshoeing or cross country skiing during winter, nature hikes in the woods, or
horseback riding for the full view of fall colors, this is a wonderful place to spend the day.
