Lake Trail – Laura Walker State Park - Laura S. Walker State Park

The Lake Trail is an easy to moderate, out-and-back trail that follows the contours of the 120-acre Laura S.
Walker Lake, and impoundment of the Big Creek. The trail crosses over a boggy wetland by way of a 1,500-foot boardwalk, where lots of critters can be found wading, swimming, flying, creeping and crawling through the murky waters or hiding among the cypress trees and Spanish moss. You will eventually cross Laura S. Walker Lake, and the bridge offers a good location to fish and observe wildlife. Once you cross the bridge, within 0.5 miles the Lake Trail meets up with the Big Creek Nature Trail by Hwy 177.
