2.5 mile out and back trail (5 mile total) that goes from the Tunnel Creek Cafe to Sand Harbor beach. It is a paved trail and great for strollers, walkers, runners, dogs and bikes (so everyone!). This is a new trail with stunning views as you are next to the lake the majority of the time. There is a free parking lot next to the Tunnel Creek Cafe with free parking, get there early as it fills up fast.
