about Stow Lake:
Get an inside view of
Golden Gate Park by boating on circular Stow Lake. You'll pass under graceful arched bridges while gliding past the grounds of the
Strybing Arboretum and the
Japanese Tea Garden. Walk around the lake and you get to step over rocks past a man-made waterfall. Waterfowl and other birds have made this a nesting area, making this a nice place for beginning birders to explore. Pedal, electric, and rowboat rentals are available.
tips:
The boathouse also rents bicycles, including quadcycles for families.
getting there:
In Golden Gate Park, take Stow Lake Drive from John F. Kennedy Drive. Muni 28,29,44
