Paved 2.75 mile trail around the reservoir with moderate elevation changes. Plenty of tree coverage during warmer weather. Heads up - $3.00 an hour for parking.

Nice 2.5 mile paved trail with a fantastic kids playground, or longer 5 mile hike along the rim. You can picnic or rent paddleboats too! Has a very local family crowd.

A very pleasant place . It's about 3 miles to walk or jog around the reservoir. You can also rent a paddle boat.

There is a paved walkway around the reservoir. It's about a 2 1/2 mile walk with people and dogs. Or you can take the shore trail on the perimeter, which is about a 5 mile walking trail with a number of hills. Beautiful.
