Crego Park in Lansing offers a quieter lakeside setting connected with the Lansing River Trail.

Paths, boardwalks and a kayak-access facility provide different ways to experience the water and surrounding landscape.
Use current trail information for access from the River Trail or the parking area off Mount Hope Avenue. The photograph shows the actual park and lake setting. A walk beside the water differs from a paddling outing, so confirm launch conditions and any boating rules separately. Weather and ground conditions can affect unpaved routes. Bring the supplies you need and follow posted access guidance.
