Castle Lake is a popular area for hiking, especially for families due to the accessible trail around the perimeter of Castle Lake. Despite its popularity, the forest surrounding the water is a peaceful place and you're likely to see swans serenely swimming by. There is also a picnic area and during busier times a coffee van.

Castle Lake Forest has a wonderful trail around the perimeter of Castle Lake. It is popular with families, but despite its popularity, the forest surrounding the water is a peaceful place and you're likely to see swans serenely swimming by. There is also a picnic area and during busier times a coffee van.
