Many a times I have roamed the trails of Kaposia Landing while waiting to pick up Matt from work. Rehabilitated around 2006, Kaposia park is located in South St. Paul. What once was a construction and demolition landfill, the park now includes hiking/biking trails and a large dog park. I have found that it offers great views of the Mississippi River while jogging around the paved trail.

Barges on the river.
A nice distracting view while on a run.
The South St. Paul Swing Bridge; sometimes you have to bend the "no trespassing" rules to get a good shot! I snuck on to the tracks to get this view of the bridge. (The risk paid off; I had this photo featured on Capture Minnesota's Instagram page!)
