Miesville Ravine Park Reserve is a Dakota County park near the town of Miesville, Minnesota. It preserves over 1,600 acres (6 km2) of biologically diverse land in the Cannon River valley. Most of the park is wooded with mature oak, maple, cottonwood, willow, red cedar, and white pine.

Year-round hiking trails, more than 2 miles (3 km) total, and 2.3 miles (3.7 km) of ungroomed trails for snowshoeing offer scenic views of the valley floor and surrounding bluffs. It has two picnic shelters available on a first-come, first-served basis or available for rent. Fishing on the trout brook is also a popular activity. In the summer, the park is open from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. and in the winter, it is open from 8 a.m to 10 p.m.

The address to access the park is 27970 Orlando Trail, Cannon Falls, MN 55009 or the phone number 952-891-7000 can be called for more information.
