Gallup Park and Furstenburg Park : Two conjoined parks lie along the Huron River in Ann Arbor, Gallup and Furstenburg Parks.  Furstenburg Park is entirely on the north (left) bank, just west of Huron Parkway.  Gallup Park comprises strips along both banks, spreading as far east from Furstenburg Park as the dam at N. Dixboro Road, east of US 23.  Small islands dot the river as it runs through Gallup Park.  The islands are connected by foot bridges.  Both parks are popular with waterfowl and other birds.  Boating and fishing are common activities, along with the usual picnicking, jogging, strolling, and photography!
