Known forlake montebellomontebellonortheast baltimoreloop
A city reservoir ringed by a flat 1.3-mile loop that's beloved by local runners, cyclists, and walkers, with a one-way perimeter road that keeps foot and bike traffic separated. It's about the most reliable, no-frills fitness loop in the city and draws a friendly, diverse crowd at all hours. There's no swimming or water access since it's a working reservoir, and shade is limited, so summer afternoons get hot.
