Small, easy trail showcasing a few hidden gems of the CJ Brown Reservoir.
This 0.4 trail is tiny but mighty! It is hidden up the hill from the CJ Brown Reservoir Visitor Center, and leads down a small wooded path to a less accessed part of the lake. This is a common spot for birdwatching, and a favorite place for Springfield's elusive Great Blue Herons. Follow the path along the lake, and you'll find several spots to access the water for finishing, a quick swim, or just enjoying the gorgeous view over the water! There are several paths leading back into the woods and then into a wild fields, full of various wildflowers and insects native to Ohio! It is a gorgeous and family friendly walk for all ages.
