The Fitzgerald Lake Conservation Area is a fantastic nature preserve for hikers, snowshoers, and trail runners. You can also go kayaking or fishing on the lake, where there are ample wildlife viewing and photography opportunities. Although the trail starts out as paved from the parking area off of North Farm Road, after a quarter of a mile it turns into dirt trails over roots and rocks, with wooden boardwalk sections after a wooden footbridge. There are several lookouts and benches along the lake for you to rest and relax at.
