About Turtle River State Park/ND Parks & Recreation
Turtle River State Park/ND Parks & Recreation
Situated on the meandering Turtle River, Turtle River State Park is located in a beautiful wooded valley. Constructed in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the park offers year-round recreational activities, including camping, picnicking, fishing, and trails for hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. Rustic group cabins can also be rented. The Turtle River is stocked with rainbow trout, and youngsters can borrow fishing gear at the park office.
Turtle River State Park is located 22 miles west of Grand Forks on Highway 2.
