Hiked here in January. Very nice, very easy. Not very long, so if you are looking for a 5 mile hike, go somewhere else. It was a bit icy, but did OK with just hiking shoes. Wish there would have been snow to go over the Mt VanHoevenburg, but the hike was a nice consolation prize More

My wife and our three sons (20, 17, 12) took the lakeside and ridge trails and found them to be perfectly suited for us. Winding, fairly level and well-marked. We're from California so I would recommend anyone hailing from a relatively bug-free environment to apply Off or Cutter before entering the trail. An absolute must. More

I walk these trails frequently and lately even more since we have welcomed Bear, the yellow Lab, into our family. It's one of the best places to walk your dog since a summer swim for both of you is a great bonus in the middle of your walk, and the other skiers and snowshoers in the winter usually have their...
