Our eight public access lakes are operated primarily for flood control, but are also enjoyed for fishing, hiking, camping, no wake boating and more.  All three trails operated by the NRD are among the best anywhere, with great rural scenery, good maintenance and excellent support by users throughout the District.  The NRD's saline wetlands offer access to one of the rarest land types on earth. 

Rules and regulations are posted at each public access site, and fortunately most users follow them.  If you witness rule violations contact local law enforcement or the NRD at 402-476-2729.
