Family Friendly Mostly flat trail with access to the water.

Description

This trail follows the shoreline around the edge of Sage Hen Reservoir. The trail goes around the whole reservoir linking campgrounds and picnic areas. The trail goes from meadows to forested areas as you circle the lake. The trail is busiest near the campgrounds, but you'll defiantly find good solitude at the southern end of the reservoir. The trail is also well marked and easy to follow.
