Trails lead to points of interest all over the island, including one of the highest points on the Lake. On a clear day you can view Copple Crown to the southeast. Trails also take you past a small swamp, a vernal pool, views of the lake, and a log cabin. The cabin, which dates from the mid-1800’s, was given to the Trust by the owners of Camp Kehonka in Alton. It was dismantled and reassembled at its present location in 1985 and is now used by staff and volunteers on some weekends during the summer.
