Directions to Gustavus and Lund Center

Access to Gustavus from the Twin Cities or Mankato is most direct via US Highway 169, a four-lane expressway. As you enter St. Peter, US Hwy 169 becomes Minnesota Avenue. The College is located on the west side of St. Peter at the termination of College Avenue. As you enter St. Peter from the south, turn left on College Avenue, or if you enter St. Peter from the north on 169, turn right on College Avenue.

Continue straight on College Avenue until you reach the campus. Once you reach the Gustavus Adolphus College sign, turn right up the hill (past the tennis courts on your right) and Uhler Hall (red brick building) on your left.

Buses are encouraged to drop off teams and park in the back of Lund. To enter the back entrance of Lund Center, continue straight at the top of the hill. You will drive past North, Gibbs, and Sorensen Halls (three halls that are connected). Continue on this road until you get to a stop sign. Norelius Hall will be on your right (5-story residence hall) and the Gustie Track and Soccer field will be straight ahead.
