LAKE JACOMO (MILES: 17)
This intermediate trail system is broken into a west and east side. The west side is easy to loop from the south marina parking lot and gets you climbing, playing on some rock and looking out over the lake with some very nice views. The East side is a bit more of a commitment as it’s primarily a linear trail, with plenty of climbing and a bit of a old school feel that will pin a smile on your face.
