Sylvan Lake Shore Trail
Sylvan Lake Shore Trail is a 1 mile hike that goes around the lake. Some parts of it are handicapped accessible. The trail at times goes up slight boulders and stairs and through a cool tunnel. You can also walk on some rocks to get to the top of the dam. Take some time and climb the boulders in the area and get a great view of the lake.
Nice easy path around the lake for most of it except behind the rocks.
