This is how I spent my lunch break today. Walking along the boardwalk behind Edgewood College.

The boardwalk was built a few years ago, made possible by a grant, and a lot of volunteer work from Edgewood students and staff. It’s situated along the marshy shore of Lake Wingra, and a perfect spot to get back to nature in the middle of the city.

After the boardwalk ends, a hiking trail continues through the woods along the lake. The trails stops with a view of a small bridge that leads into Vilas Park.

What a great way to take a break from work.
