Just having a look to see what’s around the city for green space and came across lakeside park & rose garden really nice walk not far from downtown. A really nice arrangement of different roses lots of colours even in mid September everything is out in good bloom. There’s a lake you can walk around and seating just to enjoy the fountain and the flowers. There’s a parking lot or street parking is available.

Visitor center which is a great place to visit for visitors. When you visit make sure you check out the pamphlet and brochure rack/ it is the most entertaining sites to see in Fort Wayne. But the one site you will not see in a pamphlet is the Fort Wayne beach that is located behind the TRU Hilton… What a gem… What a find… It made our trip. My buddy and I found this quaint little spot where we could hear the tread of tires rolling down the highway behind the hotel like the waves lapping up on the shores of a private lagoon. this experience almost as good as my visit to Detroit. #FamilyTradition I can’t wait to surprise my wife for our anniversary in taking her here next year…

Have riden about 1/2 of the trails in the Greenway trail system. They are mostly scenic and very comfortable riding. For the most parts they are asphalt paved.
