If you’re after a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Sitting 35 miles away, Rochester is worth the drive. Explore the area beginning with Apache Mall, National Volleyball Center and Rochester Recreation Center. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of La Crosse, 35 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Riverside Park. (But we’d also highly recommend Mount La Crosse Ski Area and Grandad Bluff Park.)
