About the Shell Rock River:
Starting at Albert Lea Lake and flowing 113 miles to the Mississippi River, the Shell Rock River is named for the fossilized shells along its banks. This slow-moving, warm-water river offers excellent bird watching and a peaceful paddle through wetlands, tallgrass prairies, and gentle slopes.
