Description

This is the perfect little 1.5 mile trail near Middletown is perfect for the family. Its part of the CFPA Blue Blaze Series of Trails. With the two small loops you are never far from the car and car park and you get the variation of the rocky trails through the woods and the lovely section by the sandy shore of the lake with a BBQ pit and Picnic table. The southern loop is also fun but more of a ‘swamp fest’ so you will definitely need your bug spray.
