This site is useless and pointless. There is nothing on it. What a waste! There is also the Douglas Trail, Chester Woods, the Zumbro River to go canoeing or tubing, camping. I know Rochester doesnt offer a lot but if you are going to have a 10best, at least fill it up or shorten it up to the 5Best things to do.
