This is the busiest lake in the area, it can get quite crowded with people walking/biking especially on a nice summer evening. It's really close to uptown and is a great way to see Minnesotans in their true element

Beautiful spot for an afternoon walk, run, or bike ride. Also has canoe rentals. Gorgeous views of the skyline, great people watching. Dedicated paths for running and biking. The little restaurant on the north east end is fantastic...be prepared to wait in line. Note: bike paths connect this lake to lake of the isles And lake harriet if you want...

Nice walking path, rentals available. Relax and enjoy beautiful weather. Small fee for parking in the lot. Street parking can be harder to find.

This is a great venue. It is the busiest of the lakes. The happenest place to be, see and be seen. The lake, the sailboats, the houses (less homes than the other lakes)...everywhere you look it is pleasing to the eye. Lots of activity...volleyball, frisbeeers, couples, singles, friends, parents with their parents, rollerbladers,
runners, walkers, people fishing, lots of dogs...

I really enjoy rollerblading around the lakes on the Grand rounds byway. Lake Calhoun is a standout with all of the activity that happens throughout the year! Hoigaards canoe race is one of my favorites!

The Uptown area and Lake Calhoun is the best area to hang out during the warm months!

Rent a boat, swim, rollerblade, stroll around the lake... take in a concert at the bandshell (concerts are EVERY NIGHT during the summer months) - this lake has it all - and so close to the action of Uptown!
