Phare Lake Trail Description

The Phare Lake trail is a fantastic outdoor hiking excursion that is perfectly suited for hikers of every skill level, especially families with young kids. The trail sets out from the side of the road and heads north before breaking off to the right on a trail through the forest that loops around the lake. Follow the path as it winds between large, moss-covered trees and interpretive signs about the various plant species and types of amphibians that can be found around the lake. Reaching the northern tip of the lake, the trail will continue a bit further before crossing over a creek and working along the eastern shore. Enjoy the scenic views across the calm waters of the lake, as you hike the return part of the loop back to the trailhead.
