Cute, but be mindful of ebikes going high speed

76-acre Thornden Park is a pleasant urban refuge with almost anything you could want: Flowers? There's a rose garden and a lily pond. Performing arts? There's an amphitheater and stage. Sports? You'll find a football field, basketball and tennis courts, outdoor exercise equipment, playground equipment for the kids, and a lot more... plus public bathrooms.

There's a turnoff from the Onondaga Creekwalk to Franklin Square, the park that marks an old industrial neighborhood, now revitalized for residential and commercial use. Technically, this is part of the Lakefront neighborhood.

This trail/tow path mostly follows the route of the old, historic Erie Canal. Along this portion you can see where the original canal was enlarged, along with some beautiful stonework and a good look at a wide area in the canal called Cedar Bay. The trail here is paved, but some parts of the Erie Canalway Trail are hard-packed dirt and gravel.

Oswego Canal Lock 5 is located just north of the Minetto Bridge. As you traverse this historic lock, catch sight of the Minetto Hydro Plant on the east bank. Exiting the lock, spot stone abutments from the 1872 Minetto Bridge. Discover dark subterranean passages, remnants of the old Brosemer Brewery with a tunnel leading to the riverside. Careful observation may reveal the entrance today, offering a glimpse into the area's fascinating history.

Steeped in indigenous history, the waters of Onondaga Lake's outlet transport runners back through generations of reverence, recreation and hardship. Once central to the Onondaga Nation, who consider the lake sacred, the site saw tourism bloom along its banks before environmental threats materialized. But even amid modern challenges, the Onondaga people remain tied to the land, just as joggers retrace the footprints of those who came before along the storied route.

Onondaga Lake provides a picturesque setting for leisurely walks or bike rides along its shores. On clear days, you can enjoy stunning views across the lake.

Situated on the shores of Onondaga Lake, Willow Bay is a special place to enjoy a break and great views of the lake. The lake is considered sacred for Onondaga Nation.
