    Tips

    August 6, 2018

    Please note that I recorded only the one way route to the lake, thus taking the same route back to the parking implies a hike of 15 km. The trail is not so heavy in terms of altitude, first through the woods towards the Macy damm and later over a boulder path to the lake. Lake relatively shallow, and there was no swimming. Nevertheless great to dip your feet in the lake.
