Kruger Unit - RJD Memorial Hardwood State Forest

Kruger Management Unit campground is adjacent to the Zumbro River Water Trail. The campsites are considered primitive, designed to furnish only the basic needs of the camper. Each has a cleared area, fire ring, and table. Vault toilets, garbage cans, and drinking water are available. All sites are on a first-come, first-served basis for a fee. Quiet hours are between 10:00 p.m.–8:00 a.m. (this includes no generator use). Please be considerate of others around you.

Highlights: Three nonmotorized marked trails start near the campground and day-use areas.

Trail one is a paved, 0.75-mile Easy Wheeling Nature Trail, accessible to persons with disabilities.

Trail two is a two-mile trail that allows hiking and skis touring and provides a challenging extension of the nature trail.

Trail three is a five-mile traverse of the bluffs and valleys along the Zumbro River. This trail allows mountain biking, horseback riding, and snowshoeing. A horse trailer unloading and parking area are located in the southwestern corner of the unit. No horse camping is allowed in the campground.
