About This Trail

Circling 15-acre North Lake on the back side of Paris Mountain State Park, this moderate trail requires a 2-mile hike-in through forest. Bass, bream, and catfish fill the stocked lake, and five trailside campsites invite overnight stays. Rocks and roots demand attention while mountain views frame the water’s edge.
