Fillmore County, Minnesota

If you’re looking for a piece of pure Midwestern charm, head to Fillmore County in the southeastern corner of Minnesota. The entire county is basically the Minnesota Memorial Hardwood State Forest.
It’s Amish country down here. The landscape is almost all rolling hills and limestone bluffs. Preston is the county seat and calls itself “America’s Trout Capital”. They’re not kidding. The fishing here is incredible.
Lanesboro is the artsy town, with galleries and a professional theater. It’s also the hub of the Root River Trail, a 60-mile bike path that’ll take your breath away. Yeah, it’s an acquired taste, but it’s pure Minnesota.
