"The Water City's Scenic Sites With over 20 lakes, Minneapolis is truly a water city—which is roughly what its name means in the Dakota language of the area's original American Indian inhabitants. The 1555-acre Chain of Lakes district highlights the best of this water-filled landscape. From the active water and ice sports of expansive Lake Calhoun to the more leisurely picturesque shoreline of Lake Harriet, each lake glistens with its own unique personality."

Beautiful lake in a very nice area. Had a launch for kayaking, and the water was very calm. I was just visiting, but I would definitely go back. I brought my own kayak but it looked there were kayak and paddle board rental options near by.

Wow. First time I've visited, and I was impressed. A group of us rode our bikes all around. Beautiful!

Nice place to walk, bike, or kayak! Also the houses around the lake are really pretty.

Relaxing and peaceful. There is some car noises but the scenery is beautiful.

Free ice skating with warming house and lights. Ice condition is good although heavy use and a bit of snow dust. Skate borrowing available. Porta potties and kid sleds. A hockey rink in the middle gives space for skaters to circle the oval. Fun people watching.

Minneapolis is the most beautiful city in the world. I took these photos when there was still some ice on the lakes. I will say that it is during summer and fall when it's the most beautiful. These photos show before the true beauty. When everything is green and súper awesome.

Very nice place for a walk or ride a bicycle. It has separated paths for biking and walking or running. From there you can walk about 10 minutes to the Bde Maka Ska lake. It is very nice in the winter to walk or bike on the lake when it's frozen.
