Hiking trails, kayaking... but it all depends on the weather. The lakes can dry up over the summer, best for fall and spring.

Birds, mushrooms, public art installations, trails in this wetland oasis.

Gorgeous, serene area teeming with wildlife. Best explored by a non-motorized boat, but you can stroll the paths, too. Largest urban wetlands refuge in the US.

At about 2,000 acres, it is one of the largest urban freshwater wetlands in the United States. It's a nice place to hike.
