About Sly Park Recreation Area

Sly Park Recreation area offers something for everyone! The center piece of SPRA is Jenkinson Lake, providing opportunities to swim, fish, water ski or take part in a variety of paddle sports activities. Sorry, no personal watercraft. If you prefer the dry land, the lake is surrounded by over 9 miles of trails that accommodate hikers, bikers and horses. The trail system winds through thick forested areas and open meadows while closely following the lake shore around the entire perimeter. Perhaps relaxing in the shade is your ideal activity, we have you covered there as well. Scattered throughout the park are a variety of Day Use areas which are excellent picnic or cookout locations. All Day Use Areas are in close proximity to the lake and have access to picnic tables, restrooms and drinking water.
