Garvin Heights Park Scenic Lookout

Garvin Heights Park Scenic Lookout sits at 1,152 feet along the Great River Road, facing due north, with land dropping 506 feet within 600 meters of the overlook. The terrain fall gives a clear view down toward Winona, 1.2 miles to the north-northeast, and a series of parks and landmarks spread across the lower ground below. Quad Courtyard, Windom Park, and Levee Park lie north-northeast between 1.0 and 1.6 miles out, with Latsch Island further along the same direction at 1.9 miles. To the northwest, Cotter Fields, Goodview Park, and Memorial Park sit between 1.5 and 3.2 miles away, while Prairie Island Park and McNally Landing extend north-northwest to 3.0 and 3.7 miles. Angel Bluff rises to 924 feet, 3.2 miles due north, standing higher than the other named features in view. Lions Park is visible to the east-northeast at 2.0 miles. Onalaska and La Crosse lie further southeast, at 23.2 and 25.1 miles respectively. Day length varies with the season, from a 05:24 sunrise and 20:54 sunset at the June solstice to a 07:39 sunrise and 16:32 sunset in December. Carlson Kiln precedes this stop on the route, with Lookout as the next site.
