Celebrate summer in Monona’s parks!
Monona invites you to stay and visit our parks, and enjoy biking & beaches. Part of Clean Lakes Alliance Loop the Lake events. Monona’s Party in the Park events welcome registered bikers AND the whole community!
Park Activities | Saturday, June 14 • 9 AM – 2 PM
Activities take place during the Loop the Lake bike ride and are open to everyone. Activity times may shift slightly as crowds ebb throughout the day.
San Damiano Park
Take a scenic detour to Monona’s newest lakefront gem—San Damiano. Steeped in history and natural beauty, this peaceful spot offers great views, a water station to refuel, and a perfect perch to cheer on the riders.
Schluter Park
Cool off with a refreshing slice of watermelon, generously provided by the Monona Police Department.
Winnequah Park
Visit the Aldo Leopold Nature Center’s education station to get an up-close look at the tiny aquatic creatures living in our local lakes.
Grand Crossing Park
Enjoy festive music, lawn games, and kid-friendly fun! Grab a snack from the concession stand, take part in the activities, or relax in the Adirondack chairs by the water. A free public parking lot is available next the The Current 2, across from Grand Crossing Park. If you’re coming by bike from the Lake Loop, the park is 500 feet off the trail – keep an eye out for the circus-themed stilt walker guiding the way to the park entrance.
