Running
The 63rd Street Pier is completely paved and feels kind of like a breakwater as you run out into the lake. It can get pretty breezy on the path, and the trek out to the end is further than it appears, but the vantage point is totally worthwhile.

Hiking
Step onto the entirely paved 63rd Street Pier, a lakeside escape that mimics a breakwater, creating a scenic path that extends into Lake Michigan. While the journey may be wind-swept and longer than it seems, the final destination offers a rewarding perspective.
