Route description

Highway 86 serves as a 23-mile (37 km) north–south route between Windom, Lakefield, and the Iowa state line.

Kilen Woods State Park, on the banks of the Des Moines River, is 5 miles east of the junction of Highway 86 and County Road 24. The park entrance is located on County Road 24.[2]

Highway 86 was authorized in 1933.

In 1934, the highway was paved between U.S. Highway 16 and Lakefield.[3][4]
