Hiking
The Mountain Island Lake trailhead is located near Mountain Island Lake Dam. At the trailhead, there is parking, access to the hiking trail, a playground, and a dam viewing spot. There are also various fishing areas, with a designated handicap fishing site. The Mountain Island Trail is nice and shaded by mature trees, which makes it a great outing in the spring and summer months. Enjoy crossing several foot bridges and a canoe launch as you make your way to the trail's endpoint, which ends a small loop by an informational sign.
