Eagle Lake sits on the outskirts of Morehead, making it an ideal spot for a short detour or a break along the trail. There’s a short loop around the lake with benches and views, and it's a nice place to watch the sunset or spot wildlife. Great for an easy walk if you're staying in town and also a good option to camp if you are hiking the Sheltowee Trace Trail.
