There are two large parking lots for the county courthouse, lake and trail. Entrances to the lots can be found off either Beech Street or 2nd Street.
Enjoy beautiful lake views during this mile loop around Courthouse Lake.
The Courthouse Loop is just a small sampling of the trails available in and around the City of Chaska. The elevational changes due to Chaska's location along the Minnesota River Valley bluffs makes for a good workout, if you are interested. Check out the Scenic Levy Trail along the Minnesota River, as well as the Ravine Trail that runs up the hill, passing under MN State Highway 41 just to the south of the intersection with Hwy 212. Use the SouthWest Transit Park and Ride ramp as a trail head parking area, and visit the town!
