Avon

Tucked into the rolling, lake-dotted terrain of central Minnesota, Avon is a place whose character is shaped by the glacial hills of Stearns County. Upper and Lower Spunk lakes lie close to town, while farmland, woods and small wetlands define the surrounding Avon Hills. The Lake Wobegon Trail, a paved multi-use route on a former rail corridor, passes through Avon and links it to a broader cycling network across central Minnesota. Its name recalls the fictional Minnesota town created by radio storyteller Garrison Keillor, a cultural reference known far beyond the region. Avon remains within the orbit of nearby St. Cloud while keeping a distinctly small-town scale.
