Lake Russell Road is a quiet paved road that you can bike up (or down) to get to the Chenocetah Lookout Tower. The road follows the banks of the lake until it intersects Old Lake Russell Road, which shoots straight uphill. Note that you'll at least want a gravel bike if you are biking all the way up to the tower from this side since the road in unmaintained for a major section. Likewise, you'll want a mountain bike if you are planning on doing any of the singletrack trails on the property.
