Fantastic wilderness area located within minutes of the whole town. I love that it is not one of those mown down planted grass nature parks. The trail is well defined yet not some engineered green way, if you need paved and painted bike trails this is not for you. If however you long for a real hike through a natural forest or gazing across a beautiful lake without a manmade beach head on over you might have just found your new favorite place.
Short but very peaceful walk, had no idea this place was tucked away where it was! Will be back to kayak
The reservoir was so peaceful and relaxing. My daughter was SUP Boarding and I was in my kayak.
Its a great spot to walk and run, but the town closed off a portion of it making it hard to make a loop when mountain biking
Good sights and it has a great location for fishing.
We love it for hiking and one day canoeing!
Very beautiful spot. Great hiking trail around the lake
Hiked the soft trail here with a hiking group and it was so cool! Its about 1.7 miles each way with beautiful views of the water from within the trees. It actually rained, and we barely got wet because of the tree canopy. Some inclines and uphills. An easy hike. There were 2 kids with us ( ages 4 and 8) and they did it with no issues. Bring bug spray! Ill be back to try kayaking on the water as I saw people doing that as well.
Very clean, beautiful, natural surface trail.
Beautiful all natural trail! I highly recommend hiking shoes, theres plenty of mud, tree roots and creeks to cross.
Great well marked trails. All year round the reservoir is interesting and an easy hike.
Fun time in nature.
Horse manure all over the trails.
Trail isnt finished yet. It will definitely be a 5star for a town trail once finished.
Beautiful at the Reservoir today!
Great hiking
Great for a quick hike, not very challenging.Lots of mountain bikers.
Wonderful walk through the trees around the lake.
A great place for the entire family. Including our 4-legged son.
Good parking, plenty of trails. Some good flow, climbs and descents. A bit too much of flow killed by a sharp turn at bottom of descent designed to kill momentum. For beginners and cardio-nuts great but intermediate skilled riders New Light or Oxford Rd would probably be better.
Great trails for walking or running
Its very peaceful, clean, and great for dog walks.
Great place to take the kids fishing. Hiking and biking trails. And seldom crowded.
Great mountain biking trails on the West and East Side. West side is very well marked, East Side not so much. These are intermediate trails with lots of roots and short steep climbs, definitely not beginner trails.
A really nice trail for walking or running. Very shady trails making this my favorite place to run in the summer. Watch out for the roots, though. Ive hurt my ankles a few times. I also go kayaking here. About a 15min paddling trip from one end to the other. I know a lot of people go fishing out on their kayaks though I havent done so myself. Actually, I saw a guy pulling up a fish while I was on the trail today. Nice place to exercise or just relax.
Nice biking and hiking trails
Glad place to kayak.
Nice hiking trails
Great single track dirt trails for running and mountain biking.
Great walk and beautiful scenery.
Easy walking trails in the shade. Great place to bring kids.
Great walking or mountain biking trail, but challenging. Several narrow areas and small streams to cross with fair to good wooded bridges. Helpful hint, if you start at the reservoir end and travel north to the end, Oak Grove Church Road then you can turn around after 1.8 miles. To break up the rough trail and not having to double back, at the end head west towards Envision Science Academy. Be mindful that you must walk the road for about .5 miles then access paved trails and sidewalks thru the Traditions Grande neighborhood. The trek back to the reservoir is 3.8 miles total. Also beware of the spider webs, the leader will have a face and mouth full...lol.
Great place to hike or kayak so close to downtown Wake Forest.
Had a fun time hiking with friends and enjoying the warm weather.
Beautiful day for a walk.
Great trail close to town.
Great service and good food.
