Leif Erikson Park & Rose Garden
Leif Erikson Park
A lakeside park on the Lakewalk with a rose garden of thousands of bushes, offering views of the lift bridge and the lake.
Leif Erikson Park, in the middle section of the Lakewalk, commemorates the Viking explorer Leif Erikson. The park has rocky lakeshores and an outdoor amphitheater, and it shows open-air films in summer. Next door, the Duluth Rose Garden grows about 3,000 rose bushes, with fountains and gazebos. The flowers peak from June to August. Admission is free. It is about a 20-minute walk from Canal Park along the Lakewalk.
