Picnic Point

Picnic ground

👍 The hike was beautiful! The trail is good for strollers as long as you stay on the main trail to Picnic Point. We at one point took a side trail right alongside the lake, which was hard to push a wagon/stroller through. The only bathroom I saw was an out house covered in spiders and bugs, so I pers...

Lake Iowa Park (Iowa County Conservation)

Just ensure to keep discs out of the rough. Saw numerous w...
