I’ve done this hike many times before and each time I mix up the trails to make it different. I hiked on the Chelatchie Prairie Railroad Trail first. I was so fortunate to meet Susie, and her dog, while on the railroad trail, and we had a very nice conversation! It’s always nice to meet other friendly people while hiking!
After completing the Chelatchie Prairie trail I hiked around Battleground Lake on the outer loop. To make things more interesting I then ascended up to the rim trail and followed it clockwise around the lake. The last leg of my hike was to track along the Battleground Lake shoreline, where I stopped to take plenty of pictures.
Such a nice time on this wonderful local hike. 🙂
