Trail Description Easy to moderate trails through grassland and timber. The trail goes around a lake and offers beautiful views of water and wildlife. Most trails are wide enough for two horses to walk side-by-side. Timber trails are somewhat more narrow but are generally well groomed and mowed to accommodate hikers as well as horses.
