Area Travel - AmericInn^® of Wabasha, MN

Welcome to Wabasha and the scenic Upper Mississippi River Valley!

The AmericInn of Wabasha is conveniently located in Wabasha only minutes from all attractions. The Wabasha-Kellogg Area offers a wide array…and then some. A famous carousel with 19 hand carved animals, miniature golf, and of course a fabulous antique toy museum can be a great start. But don’t overlook the bald eagles. Learn about their care and feeding plus river environments while viewing up close and live. There’s bowling, a sound and light show, golfing in some of the land’s most scenic courses. Extra long ski slopes protected by birch, oaks and pine trees, attract all winter season. And when you need to slow down the pace a bit, there’s a museum displaying Indian and pioneer artifacts, stuffed animals, and a large gun collection. And don’t miss the world-class theater offering productions and events throughout the year.
