Echo Park Lake Pedal Boating

One of my best friends Liz told me about Echo Park Lake and how you can rent pedal boats, so we put this on both of our LA Bucket Lists. We came here on a cloudy Saturday afternoon, and it was nice to not have the hot sun scorching us as we pedaled merrily around. This is the perfect activity for a weekend afternoon - you will see sweeping views of the L.A. skyline, the iconic Echo Park Lake fountain, and the gorgeous park that it's smack-dab in the middle of.  Get ready to put your pedal to the medal and Visit Echo Park Lake at 751 Echo Park Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90026. Costs $10/hour per person (cash only), it's open daily, and no reservations are necessary.
