Join Stacy for a winter walk
The trail is a one-mile loop around a small lake with stone bridges and pretty views, mostly on flat graveled trails with some stairs and a few steep or muddy places. We may also choose to visit the winter garden.
If footing is icy that day, we may substitute one of the paved trails which should be clear.
A trail map can be seen here:

Dogs are welcome on this walk.
After our walk, an optional lunch will be a pleasant way to warm up: Collegetown Bagels, East Hill Plaza, 329 Pine Tree Road, Ithaca.
Bring:
- Recommended: water, warm boots/trail runners, hat, gloves
- Optional: walking poles, micro spikes, lunch/snack, camera, binoculars
- A mask in case it might be needed.
Please dress for the weather; dressing in layers is encouraged and wear appropriate boots/shoes.
