  • Fort Ridgely State Park 72158 County Road 30 Fairfax, MN, 55332 United States (map)

All are welcome to ride with us at Fort Ridgely - all breeds welcome! 

Ride on your own or with a group. 

Host site is H7E. We'll be hasting a LUNCH (not a supper). Ride in the morning and we'll gather about 1:00 pm. Lunch is a potluck. Watch this page for what the main dish will be.

All but one campsite has electric hookup and there is water at each as well. Central located shower house and bathroom, and also a dump station. For those without campers, there is a farmhouse to rent there thru the DNR website that does sleep 6. The campground has a few covered box stalls for a fee to use as well. 

Carol Carlson Kirchoff, Merry Kay Bandelin, and Robin Martensen are hosting.
