Nature Trail

There is a new nature trail next to our house, that leads to a lake. It's an easy and beautiful walk through the forest. Doesn't it look inviting?




We've enjoyed many walks and have had fun watching spring arrive.




Beautiful example of shelf fungus. Yes, fungus can be beautiful when found in nature as it should be.

The path ends at Shenandoah Lake. You can take a path around the lake to a dock, where you can rent row boats and canoes. Fishing is also allowed on the lake.

Off the lake there are several creeks, fun for future exploring.

We are really enjoying this new edition to our neighborhood and it's right next to our house.
