| Hike Summary: | This short loop hike at Vogel State Park circles the lake near the visitor's center and passes across a damn with a spillway that creates an impressive waterfall that can be seen from a side trail. Views of the mountains toward Blood Mountain can be seen in the distance and the trail is suitable for small children. There are wilderness trails that start near the campground, but if you are looking for a short hike to entertain the kids - this is perfect. |
