Dogs are not allowed on the beach, and the dog beach next to the beach was closed a few years ago, after too many dogs on the lake caused trouble.

Unfortunately the last section past the lake was flooded. So we had to walk around the outside in a wide circle to get back to the car. Or the same way back. But we didn't want that.

Very beautiful and very natural route. Because it's all deciduous forest, everything is still intact. Jungle-like in places.
We had to wander around a bit to find a way, as some of the areas here are flooded.
The weather held up too 😃👍
