Description

Easy-to-hike trail that connects the boating and playground areas to the Nature Center. Views of the lake through the trees. Starting from the boating area, hike through the woods until you reach the boardwalk along the edge of the lake. Turn right at the end of the boardwalk and head up the hill alongside a small meadow. Turn left into the woods just before the pavilion. The trail continues through the woods to the Nature Center, and past the Nature Center to connect with other trails.
