Cycle path only. Quite a bit of traffic in August. Caution is advised. Hourtin Lake is beautiful and wild.

Nice round trip with lots of shade on paved bike paths (with a roundabout only for cyclists 🙂) through the forest.
Stop at the beach was worth it, despite the hot Sunday there was not much going on.
