アレン郡のおすすめツーリングルート

St. Mary's is one of three rivers that run through Fort Wayne. It is a tributary of the Maumee River and eventually flows into Lake Erie. There is a tall line of trees between the river and Foster Park here at the southern end.

At Foster Park you will find sports fields, gardens, pavilions, semi-wooded pathways, and a replica Lincoln Log cabin.

Rivergreenway runs 24 miles through Fort Wayne along three different rivers. Here, along the St. Mary's, you follow a paved and semi-wooded path through Foster Park.

The St. Joseph River formed between two glacial moraines at the end of the last ice age. For this reason it flows southwest into Fort Wayne where it joins with St. Mary's River to become the Maumee before flowing back the way it came into Lake Erie.

The Venderly Family Bridge is a beautiful suspension bridge built to allow easy access across the river for Purdue University students, runners, walkers, and cyclists.

Promenade Park Canal runs through the center of the park and is a great place for kids. It is made up of a shallow water canal with large stepping stones in it. On a hot day you will find kids splashing around and having fun.

Just past the recreation of Fort Wayne along the River Greenway you will find this nice little deck that gets you out over the river a few feet. It is a nice place to stop and get a view of the river and the nature surrounding it.

Here stands a recreation of the fort constructed by American troops under Major John Whistler. The original fort was active from 1815 to 1819, and may be the most sophisticated wooden fort ever built in the U.S. The Old Fort is open for historical reenactments and events.
