Beltrami

Beltrami lies along the Sand Hill River in northwestern Minnesota, where the broad, level Red River Valley is defined by farmland and open skies. This small community in Polk County stands far from Minnesota’s better-known lake districts, in a landscape whose waters ultimately flow toward the Red River of the North. Beltrami is named for Giacomo Beltrami, the Italian explorer linked to an early, mistaken claim of finding the Mississippi River’s source. The town is part of an agricultural region where prairie horizons and the river corridor set the local character. See how Beltrami fits within northwestern Minnesota by browsing webcams nearby.
