Your Keys to Adventure
- From the parking area on Sparton Road, follow the lake edge behind the restroom. Pass two picnic tables. You’ll see purple blazes heading into the woods.
- Green posts say “6” for Trail 6. At the first two splits, stay to the right, heading up the hill. Continue winding up the hill through several switchbacks, following purple blazes.
- At the top of the hill, look for the post on the left.
- Decide whether to go back the way you came now or extend your hike by more than a mile to continue on trail 6 in a loop back to where you were before heading back down.
