Description

The trail has lake views and various junctions with other trails, camping areas, and even passes by two boat ramps. You'll follow a gravel road for part of the trail and travel through a small stand of pines. The trail will take you below the dam but you can cross on the top of the dam also. Follow trail markers and use the Hiking Project mobile app to complete the Lake Trail.
