Located in the scenic and remote Hiawatha National Forest, this short loop trail circles around the 145-acre Colwell Lake providing hikers with nice water views and lots of opportunity for viewing wildlife. The natural surface trail is wide and easy to follow with minimal change in elevation making it a great choice for hikers of all skill levels. There are campgrounds and picnic areas located on the lake as well as a boat launch and nice swimming beaches. The trail is also used a lot in the winter for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
