Greenlake is directly north of Wallingford, and northwest of the U-District. It's one of the nicest places to be in the summer.
There's a 2-3/4 mile (4km) jogging and biking path around the lake, always full of people. On the northeast corner there's a small beach area which is open for swimming in the summer, though the water's not the cleanest. Specifically, the water is contaminated by a certain algae that has been known to cause itchiness and skin irritation.
