What is a paddle trail? Well, it's a trail mapped on the water and paddled via kayak or canoe.
Following the figure-eight-shaped flat trail will take you through 2.8 miles of shoreline, pretty views and all.

From this point of view, the reservoir looks like a whole new place!
The southern back coves of Indian Creek Reservoir are quite pretty, and seeing them from water level is an experience regular hikers can't enjoy.

Getting a different angle on wildlife makes it easier to spot some creatures that might otherwise be hidden.
In the right seasons, this beautiful paddle trail has a lot of opportunities for wildlife watching, as well as beautifully blooming waterlilies.
