Discover Lakewood: Trolley Tour

Hop aboard the trolley for a guided tour of Lakewood’s 250 acres of park-like beauty and storied history. We’ll take in vistas of the landscape and architecture, dive into the stories of some of Lakewood’s notable residents, and appreciate the artistry of monuments and sculptures.

Seats are limited. If you need to cancel your reservation, please email [email protected] so others may enjoy this experience.

Location Update: Please meet at the new Welcome Center. When you enter through our gates at 36th and Hennepin take an immediate left and the building is on your right, just past the water feature.

We will still be touring the historic chapel at the end of the tour, but are asking guests to meet at the Welcome Center to accommodate a private event in the chapel that afternoon.

Free parking is available along all roads inside the cemetery unless otherwise noted with a no parking sign. Metro Transit lines 6 and 23 stop near Lakewood’s front gates at 36th & Hennepin Avenue, a short distance from the Welcome Center. If you arrive by bicycle, lock your bike at the rack near the front gates and walk to the Welcome Center. Please do not lock bikes to trees.
