Very popular walking and biking (trail around lake is 2 miles) but connected into a city trail network. Boat rental concession, beach, amphitheater, nations largest collection of crab apple trees and more.

Rent a kayak or just go for a walk around the lake. This is a beautiful place to see the sun go down over downtown.

Excellent paved walking trail that follows the rim of the lake. Beautiful views and even a beach for swimming! You can also rent paddle boats, sailboats, or kayaks to enjoy the lake from!
