St. Cloud is central Minnesota’s largest city, a regional center for healthcare, manufacturing, education and retail on the banks of the Mississippi. CentraCare is the area’s largest employer, and the region has a strong manufacturing base, from food processing to equipment and building products. St. Cloud State University brings students and faculty, and nearby Saint John’s University and the College of Saint Benedict draw visitors to their campuses and to Saint John’s Abbey. The city’s nickname, the Granite City, comes from the quarries that supplied stone for buildings across the country.
St. Cloud is about an hour and a quarter northwest of the Twin Cities on I-94, a route that fills with cabin traffic on summer weekends. Saint Cloud Regional Airport is just east of the city, so flying private puts business travelers close to plants and offices and saves families the drive for campus visits. Visitors come for the Munsinger and Clemens Gardens along the river, swimming and hiking at Quarry Park and Nature Preserve and biking the Lake Wobegon Trail.

Things to do in St. Cloud
When to go. Summer is a lovely time to visit St. Cloud, when the gardens are in full bloom and Quarry Park is open for swimming. Fall brings brilliant color on the Saint John’s campus and along the Mississippi, along with college football. Winter is cold and snowy but brings St. Cloud State hockey, and many travelers pass through on their way to lake cabins farther north in summer.
