Lake Loop

The most perfect running loop in the city, with the most perfect weather makes for a great run. I started the Lake Loop at Lake Park on the eastern side of downtown Milwaukee. It's a great part of the trail that goes through wooded parks, a golf course, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and of course Lake Michigan.
Lake Park Golf Course is a fun little par three. 


North Point is like the oldest lighthouse in the world or something. I thought the bridge was cooler than the lighthouse.


The trail starts up above Lake Michigan and goes behind the tennis courts on Lincoln Memorial. It's a really nice part of the trail because you're right in downtown with the high rise buildings right on top of you, but the tree canopy gives a nice cover.


You also get to pass many Milwaukee landmarks like the art museum,

Summerfest grounds and that one bridge,

and Bradford Beach

It was a great run. Can't wait to do it again.
