omething good is happening in Wadena. That’s a motto the city embraces daily as it enjoys a resurgence of exciting businesses throughout the town. It’s a place where you can start your day enjoying German delicacies, sample just-roasted coffee, and easily walk the historic art deco-styled downtown. If you’re looking for more peace and quiet, step out to one of the many outdoor opportunities in and outside of Wadena’s city limits. Make your way back into town later for a movie and supper, or drinks at the new brewery or distillery. Stay the night in a tree house, A-frame or rustic farmhouse, all within minutes of Wadena.
Green Island
This little-known escape is a place of peace and quiet right inside the city. While it’s set next to Wadena’s largest car lot, Kal’s Kars, a short walk will have you feeling like you’ve left the city behind. This private property is open to all. Enjoy the nature park featuring walking trails, artscapes, picnic areas, gardens and even a meditation hut. Find the island at 850 Scheer Drive NE, Wadena.
