Lake Minnetonka’s Most Popular Experiences

From the summer sun to the winter snow, there is always something to get up to on Lake Minnetonka’s water and shores.

Have some Winter Fun
Lake Minnetonka is well known amongst the people who love a little-known activity called ice yachting. When the lake freezes over during the cold Minnesotan winters people from all over take to the lake to race their ice yachts on top of the sheet of ice that covers the lake.

Chain Together for a Party
After a long cold winter, locals in Minnesota love to come together for a boat party at Lake Minnetonka. The boats congregate in one area and tie themselves together for the ultimate summer party - it’s not one that you want to miss!

Set your Ship to Sail
Lake Minnetonka is also a sailing hot spot as the drive to the sea or the Great Lakes is simply too far for those who love to do it. The lake is the host to four active yacht clubs, and with all the bays and coves there is plenty of room to sail undisturbed.
