Northfield Chamber Convention & Visitors Bureau

The Northfield Area Chamber of Commerce/Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) can help plan a group visit and tour of Northfield and the surrounding area. They can also assist with customizing a portion of an existing tour or excursion.

The CVB has two very popular tours for groups to enjoy:

The Outlaw Trail – The route taken by the James-Younger Gang as they rode through the Northfield area in 1876. The tour includes historic buildings, campsites, country roads and a few little towns along the way.

Historic Sites and Points of Interest – A sampling of charming, attractive, historic buildings and interesting sites in and around the Northfield area.

The CVB provides a self-guided tour brochure of both these tours. A tour guide service is available for tour buses and large groups when reservations are made in advance of a visit.
