A yellow-blazed 1.2-mile loop from the Nature Museum parking lot. It starts west of the museum near the Carriage House and leads to an observation platform over the north bay of Bantam Lake, built on the old ice-house conveyor pilings — a nice look at the lake and a bit of its ice-harvesting history.
