Hike around Radnor Lake

07/30/17

This is a nice walk just outside of 'Old Brentwood'. The trail is a 2.5 mile loop that consists of an old asphalt roadbed, a gravel maintenance road, dirt trail, and mulched trail. Dogs are not permitted on the mulched or dirt portions of the loop which makes for an 'out and back' 2-mile walk for those with dogs. What I dislike about Radnor Lake is the asphalt roadbed turned trail that is currently falling into the lake. There are some obvious drainage issues that have caused the road portion of the trail to deteriorate. It's fine for walking but a major eye sore for being a prominent feature in a State Park. The road either needs to be renovated as a bike trail or removed. The metal barricades placed intermittently around collapsed sections of the road shouldn't be semi-permanent fixtures.
