Description
This trail is in a section of the park that allows dogs to be off leash.
The Long Lake Trail travels through a mixed forest along the east side of Long Lake. It is a wide trail that is well used by mountain bikes. The trail is also used to access several other more remote trails (Shyzer, Newfound, and Moose Trax). The trail undulates between flat rocky hills, and boardwalks in the low wet sections. At the north end of the lake the trail crosses a small bridge over the outlet of the lake. From the bridge you get a view looking down the long lake.
