Take a ride to Pineo Peaks, then hike the trail(s), or relax by the lake .
It will be a 9:30AM departure from the GLS ATV Clubhouse with about a 2:00PM return. It's about an 18 mile ride out to the trail head and the hike itself is about 1.3 miles round trip. For those not interested in the uphill hike, there is an opportunity to just enjoy an easy walk to the shore of West Grand Lake. Bring a lunch and water for the hike.
DLLT Hike Description: The Pineo Peaks Trail explores a remote section of the Community Forest located entirely within ecological reserve. Head north on the Amazon Road for 8 miles, and turn left onto the Pineo Point Road and drive for 1.6 miles. There are two trailhead access points from the parking location. The trailhead on your left will lead you on a 1.3-mile hike (round-trip) up to Pineo Peak and winds through mixed hardwood forest, climbing a ridge with partial views of West Grand Lake. Near the top, the trail forms a small lollipop loop, exploring unique geological formations of granite ledges, small crevasses, and extensive caves and rockfalls. Back at the parking location, the second trailhead is located on the right and leads to the lake. It parallels the shore for 1.6 miles, crossing Oxbrook Stream, and ends at the Princeton Island campsite.
We look forward to seeing you for this wonderful adventure.
