Wonderful destination for paddlers, anglers and birders; the tributaries and marshy wetlands attract many nesting bird species and provide cover for a wide array of freshwater fish; hiking, biking, and picnic areas can be found in the City of Kingston parks; 3.8 mile linear Betty Brown Memorial Walking Trail skirts the lake to connect Kingston City Park to Fort Southwest Point Park, providing scenic views from either direction. Lakewood Park features an accessible kayak launch and fishing peninsula.
