Sunrise Lake Trail Description

Sunrise Lake Trail is a short, easy hike suitable for all ages. It features a lake, wildflowers, and plenty of greenery. We recommend bringing bug spray for this trail.

The Sunrise Lake Trail heads out on Palisades Lake Trail off the curve of the road. Follow this trail, winding around a tight left turn, to Sunrise Lake. Loop around the entire lakeshore, then retrace your steps to your car. Since this hike is a quick one, we recommend relaxing for a while at the lake.
