Dakota County's 456-acre Whitetail Woods Regional Park is located in Empire Township in the center of Dakota County, one mile north of the Vermillion River.
The park is bordered by the

Watch out for the goats
Goats will be used to control invasive species in Whitetail Woods Regional Park this summer.
When the goats are present, a temporary electrified fence will be installed to keep them contained. Please enjoy the goats from a distance and do not attempt to feed or pet them. They're working hard, so please don't distract them.
