Although avid fishing enthusiasts will love Prairie Park Fishery, you certainly do not have to be an angler to visit this attractive outdoor recreation area. The park is located around a 65-acre lake which was once a quarry. Today visitors come to enjoy a variety of activities, in addition to fishing (and ice-fishing in winter). Prairie Park features a 1.7 mile packed surface trail which meanders around the perimeter of the lake and is ideal for walking, hiking, biking and bird watching. The lake waters are exceptionally clear and offer excellent fishing from the shore or from a canoe or other small craft. No motor boats are allowed but visitors are welcome to enjoy kayaking, paddling and scuba diving.
