Moorehead Park

Moorehead Park, Ida County's largest upland forest, is a haven for wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The serene stocked lake, complete with a boat ramp and fishing docks, is perfect for peaceful escapes or family adventures. Visitors can enjoy park shelters, a sprawling playground, and nearly eight miles of biking and hiking trails, including a paved route that winds through the town of Ida Grove. In winter, the sledding hill by the Depot adds seasonal fun for all ages. The park is also home to the Ida County Conservation Center, offering engaging educational programs and versatile spaces for private events like family reunions and graduations. Steeped in history, Moorehead Park features the beautifully preserved Stagecoach Inn, stagecoach barn and an old schoolhouse—each a window into the past
