About This Trail
The trail goes around Cedar lake. There is an option for an out and back from the Makanda trailhead. The trail is very well lit with a few junctions that are missing. A lot of this trail is part of the River to River trail. The trail is in good shape all the time. There are some washed out sections due to erosion. There is a mixture of wood and pine. There is a loop around the lake that can be used to get back to the Lirley trail head.
