Description
The lake is surrounded by trees and multiple pathways that connect several neighborhoods; Silver Lake, West Brighton, Grimes Hill, and Tompkinsville. This park makes for a great destination for light walks, hiking, cycling, and running. There are plenty of open grassy hills for relaxing or exploring off the path, and a playground, plus dog park for loved ones who aren't as interested in hiking as you might be. Spring, Fall, and Winter outings are ideal. Sunset by the lake is always a treat.
