Red Trail

The main hiking path in Lake Roland. The path mostly follows an old railroad grade. The southern end includes steps.

A 5.1 km half-day trail that offers a balanced outing without demanding too much. Budget around 1 hour and 8 minutes.

This route forms a near-complete loop: the start and finish are very close together, so only minimal transport is needed to get back. It combines the convenience of a circular walk with a slightly varied return. The trail is officially waymarked as Red, so look out for the trail markers along the way.

This is a Local Walking Network (LWN) trail — a community-level route perfect for exploring the immediate surroundings, popular with locals and visitors alike.
