Wilderness Park and Woods Park. Â Wilderness to hike and mountain bike, Woods to swim, use the fields, bring the kids to the playground.

Where are those parks located?
(My question is probably dumb since I probably hardly know any parks in Lincoln...)

I know Holmes Park and was at Pioneers Park many years ago.
Any parks in Lincoln with lakes as well?
Isn't there one north or west of the football stadium?

Oak Lake. Â It's just NW of downtown on the west side of I-180. Â You can get there off of Sun Valley Blvd I think.

Wilderness Park is on Highway 77 and W Old Cheney and IMO has easily the best trails in Lincoln. Â Woods Park is about 33rd and O.
