DAUBENSPECK FAMILY PARK TRAIL
About This Trail
This is an easy hike. It is a wood chip trail that runs along side of the lake. The trail is mostly covered with trees and has a few benches along the trail for looking out over the lake. There is picnic tables and a covered pavilion at the same park. There is also a barbecue pit and a good amount of parking. The lake is often visited by water fowl during the summertime, and this is a popular swimming hole. Life jackets are hung near the bathrooms for public use.
