Welcome aboard the authentic La Crosse Queen paddlewheeler on the upper Mississippi River! On this tour, while the La Crosse Queen paddles the main channel of the river, your guide will explain facts and trivia of the historical and present day river, as well as point out local points of interest. Watch for eagles and other wildlife as we cruise past steep bluffs adjacent to the Great River Road — one of the most scenic areas in America! Then as you near Lock & Dam No.7 in Dresbach, Minnesota, we will explain the locking process to you!

Arrive: 1:15pm (This gives you a little time for parking, restrooms, and boarding.)

Event: 1:30 to 3:00 (The boat leaves promptly at 1:30.)

There is a park across from the boat. It's just a large grassy area with some picnic tables. You are welcome to come early, bring a sack lunch, bring frisbees or a football, and hang out before the cruise.

Deadline to Cancel: Sunday, October 6
