A ride along the Northern half of the Lakefront Trail is the best way to take in Lake Michigan, explore parks and beaches, visit the zoo, and more. Since the trail covers so much of the city, it’s easy to ride for as long as you'd like and hop off when you're done. You can enter at any point, with many Divvy stations located on or very close to the Trail itself. Dock your bike along the way to see various attractions, and pick one back up when you're ready to ride again!
Starting in the summer of 1959, the Chicago Air and Water Show has grown to be the largest and oldest free admission air and water exhibition in the United States. The spectacular two-day event draws an audience of over two million to the city’s stunning beachfront to see military and pilots perform astonishing stunts above the waters of Lake Michigan.
