Hiking and Biking, primarily- Over 7 miles of stunning trails along with fishing and boating facilities in the lake. The half-mile walk around the lake is absolutely blissful during Fall season. The hikes cut through much acclaimed Danada-Herrick Regional Trail. Famous for horseback riding and cross-country skiing as well.
