​Project map showing the promenade south of Thompson Lake., including trail closure.Part of the Thompson County Park Master Plan includes a pollinator promenade and restored stream. The county has completed design for this work and plans to start construction in September. Temporary, short-term closures of the Lake Loop Trail and the River to River Greenway are expected. Detour signage will help direct visitors.

This project will create a path alongside a restored stream bed. A variety of native trees and plants that engage the senses will line the path. New interpretive signs will be installed along the walkway.

​Funding for this project was provided by the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund as recommended by the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR).
