Description
This trail is mostly level with a few small rolling hills. Hikers will expend little effort navigating the trail since it is pretty easy to follow. While the trail is also shared with bikers, there is plenty of space for all. About halfway through the 5.2 mile trail is a loop that runs near the lake where you can take a break in the shade and enjoy the view as well. There are bathroom facilities along the route but no drinking water, so be sure to BYOW.
