    Hiking

    The trail around the lake is paved concrete and is flat. There is very little shade but the view of the lake and wildlife makes for a nice scenic hike.

    Road cycling

    The flat concrete trail around the lake is perfect for cycling and taking in the views. Just take care of other users of the path and be considerate.
