On top of Prospect Mountain with its famous view on the lake.

The summit of Prospect Mountain has picnic tables, pavilions, and the remnants of a historic cable car system. The cable car railway was constructed in 1895 and carried visitors over a mile up the mountain to a luxury hotel. At the time of construction it was the longest and tallest cable car railway in the country, but it was shut down in 1903 and later used as scrap metal in WWI.

Once you have hiked up there is a reward: a beautiful view of the lake.
