Cycling

This is one of the two lakes that Echo Lake Park has to offer. You can observe people fishing, on pedal boats, or just enjoying the park. Lower Echo Lake features a nice waterfall that makes for a relaxing break.

Road cycling

One of a pair of lakes in Echo Lake Park, Lower Echo Lake is a popular year-round destination. Pedal boating and fishing bring in visitors during the warmer months, while ice skating becomes available as the temperature drops.
