Bonnie’s Pond Trail, a 3 km loop past mature beech trees and a beaver pond, is converted into snowshoe trail during the winter season. Additionally, a 5 km loop of the Yellow Ski Trail also permits snowshoeing. Bring your own snowshoes or rent a pair from the park.
Ice Fishing
Ice fishing for Lake Trout is permitted on Silent Lake during the winter season. As the water cools, Lake Trout can be found at various depths in the lake, typically along contour lines and not far from baitfish.
