REI — Bloomington

Since 1977, REI Bloomington has been outfitting Minnesotans with quality outdoor gear and clothing. Our current location, which opened in 1997, ranks as the third largest REI store in the country. We've got a 55-foot climbing wall, a test trail for mountain bikes, and a whole lot more. Come let our friendly, knowledgeable staff help equip you for your next adventure!

Promoting Environmental Awareness in Kids (PEAK)

PEAK is a hands-on, interactive program that teaches children how to have fun (and still get dirty!) outside while practicing responsible outdoor recreation.

With a little guidance kids can turn their endless energy into thoughtful stewardship.
