The Yahara River Parkway stretches south across Madison’s isthmus from Tenney Park on Lake Mendota to Yahara Place Park on Lake Monona. Quiet shaded park lawns and footpaths sprawl between bridges along the slow-flowing river. Near the end of October, a coven of paddleboarding witches can occasionally be spotted floating down to Lake Monona before paddling steadily back upsteam.
