The Durand Lake Trail is a 1.2 mile walk that has a very strong wilderness feel to it. There are sections of corduroy (log paths) along the southern part of the trail.
The Trott Lake Trail is a .5 mile walk over small rolling hills. Along the path you will see the area that used to be Dr. Henry S. Durand’s old campground where there are also unusual trees which are labeled.
The Eastman Lake Trail is a 1.5 mile walk that is spectacular for any season. This trail follows along the lake where you can see waterfowl and warblers, especially during migration seasons.
Comments From Other Members:
I have done the paved trail alot this last summer. Haven't tried any of the others, but I wouldn't mind except it has to be at least in the 40's.
Has anyone hiked these? Are they accessible in the winter?
I found the paved trail along the shore and into the wetlands this past summer. It was a beautiful afternoon/evening hike. I'd like to try the Durand lake Trail if it's hikable in winter. Or for snow shoeing? Anyone want to try?
