Robinson Point Trail

The Trails

The Robinson Point Trail is a 3-mile loop. It is a moderately difficult hike with about 590 feet of total climbing. The bluff overlook is strikingly lovely; even though there is a double-rail fence, children should be supervised closely.

The trail passes through a mixed forest of cedars, oaks, and hickories. You'll pass through at least one grassy area near the lake and you will have to climb through several steep ravines. There is a long climb along the bluff line with beautiful views and large boulders that make nice benches for a breather or a picnic lunch.
