Wind around lily pads, lilies, and cattails. Stop at the beach on the island or paddle to the Point. Watch the ducks, swans, and turtles as you zigzag your way upriver.
Bike the Warroad Trail
The biking paths around the Warroad Point Park are ideal for family biking. The wide, paved trails that wind around the lagoons next to Lake of the Woods provide plenty of space for training wheels, bike trailers, and even tandem bikes. Choose a short loop of a few miles, or go the distance – about 7 miles out to the Warroad Estates and back.
