Lakeside trail at Dalby Forest

Take in the scenery of a beautiful woodland lake

This trail circles Staindale Lake along boardwalks and well-surfaced paths. It's particularly worth stopping at Staindale Lake dam on the west end of the lake to enjoy its tranquil blue waters and spot the wildlife here on the birdfeeders.

See if you can find the artwork 'Dragonfly' by Peter Maris and Ann Sotheran on your way onto the trail.
