If you visit during the summer, you'll find a plethora of sporting and live music events at the Chain of Lakes, particularly during July's Aquatennial festival. Though not as popular, the Lake of the Isles, Cedar Lake and Brownie Lake are great backdrops for a picnic or a stroll. No trip to the Land of 10,000 Lakes is complete without a stroll around some of the metro area's most popular. Each of the five bodies of water that encompass the Chain of Lakes byway district has something different to offer: Lake Harriet features live music during the summer, not to mention a bird sanctuary, rose gardens and two family-friendly beaches, while Bde Maka Ska (formerly Lake Calhoun) draws a more active crowd with plenty of boat and bike rentals and paths for jogging and biking. News Insider Tip: If you're at Lake of the Isles, visit The Kenwood Restaurant for a chef-prepared meal focused on seasonal and local ingredients and Birchbark Books for indigenous-focused reads. – Rachael Hood, Senior Editor
