We love a sculpture walk. We find that it is a great way to combine outdoor exercise with art appreciation. And in contrast of a visit to an art museum, there is no worrying about keeping the kids on their best behavior. Everyone gets to relax and have a great time.
Recently, we visited the renovated Sinnissippi bike path. We parked at the Nicholas Conservatory for free. Money was tight on this particular trip, so we decided against 
exploring the Conservatory, which has a steep fee for admittance. Luckily, the property outside of the conservatory is open and free to the public. These public grounds run sort of parallel to the bike path and you will find lovely flowers, manicured lawns, statues, and waterfalls.
Once done exploring this area, we reconnected with the bike path. Interspersed along the route are numerous sculptures to admire. You’ll find yourself walking between the Sinnissipi River and some old railroad tracks. The river water draws many geese, ducks, and cranes. There are plenty of benches along the path, occasional picnic tables, and some good climbing trees.
Tip: The conservatory has a detached, public restroom on the bike path side that was very clean.
We had a tremendous time exploring this area and look forward to returning soon.
