Minneapolis Area Sports The Minneapolis metropolitan area is filled with opportunities for those who enjoy sports and the great outdoors. Sample one of our more than 10,000 lakes, many of which are encircled by public trails for jogging, biking, rollerblading or just plain old-fashioned strolling. Enjoy wonderful golf courses or cheer one of our professional, college or prep sports teams to victory. Winter doesn't stop Minnesotans. Try snowmobiling, ice fishing, cross country or downhill skiing, snowboarding or sledding. Take a twirl on an ice rink or find a pick up hockey game. We have four distinct seasons, each offering it's own special beauty, so get out there, and enjoy the view while doing something good for your heart and physique.
