1420 Island
This small island on the Huron River features outdoor tables, a playground, boat landing, and a stunning Greek Revival picnic shelter. Trails connect to Riverside Park (a picturesque stretch of shoreline on a shallow portion of river suitable for fly-fishing) and Fuller Park. In the woods at the back of the park, a dirt road-turned-walking path ascends to the Cedar Bend Nature Area, a high, forested slope (also accessible from Broadway via Cedar Bend Dr.) whose view of the city’s skyline is partially obscured by oaks and hickories.
